Stir Fried Bok Choi with Garlic

Ingredients:
  • 1/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced garlic (about 8 cloves)
  • 2 pounds baby or Shanghai bok choy, halved lengthwise
  • 2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
Instructions:
  1. Stir together broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until cornstarch has dissolved.
  2. Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates instantly. Pour peanut oil down side of wok, then swirl oil, tilting wok to coat side.
  3. Add garlic and stir-fry until pale golden, 5 to 10 seconds. Add half of bok choy and stir-fry until leaves wilt, about 2 minutes, then add remaining bok choy and stir-fry until all leaves are bright green and limp, 2 to 3 minutes total.
  4. Stir broth mixture, then pour into wok and stir-fry 15 seconds. Cover with lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes.
  5. Stir in sesame oil, then transfer to a serving dish.
