A Quick Stir Fry

Ingredients

BOK CHOY Bok choy is part of the cabbage family but has sweet undertones to it which makes it great to cook for stir-fries, plus it maintains a little bit of crunch even after cooking. If overcooked, the tender-crisp texture. It can be cut into larger pieces or sliced if desired.

BEEF Marinated beef is both tender and flavorful. It should be added to the skillet along with a savory and spicy sauce.

SAUCE The sauce is made with Hoisin, broth, sriracha, and sesame oil. It's sweet and savory with a bit of a kick. If you'd prefer you can use a premade stir fry sauce.

Variations

All stir fry recipes have the advantage of being excellent ways to use up leftovers!

• Add baby corn, broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms.
• Beef can be switched out for chicken, pork, shrimp, or even tofu!
• Serve Bok choy stir fry on top of white rice, brown rice, fried rice, or udon noodles!

How to Cut Bok Choy for Stir Fry

Every part of bok choy can be used!

1. Slice an inch from the bottom root of bok choy. Separate the leaves and rinse them. Pat each leaf dry and stack the leaves on top of each other.
2. Cut the white stem way from each side of the leaves. Collect the stems and cut them into pieces (about 1/2″ thick).
3. Coarsely cut the leaves into 2″ pieces, they'll shrink as they cook.
