Braised Baby Bok Choy

I loosely followed the recipe below for the baby bok choy we had last night, and it was delicious. I will definitely use this method of cooking bok choy from now on. We had it along side grilled chicken breast and whole grain brown rice seasoned by the juices of the baby bok choy.

The entire meal was really tasty and light, perfect for a week night dinner at home.



Ingredients
(Serves 4)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
8 heads baby bok choy, trimmed, and halved lengthwise if large
1/4 cup homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock, or water
3 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add bok choy, and cook, turning once, until just beginning to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add stock and soy sauce. Cover; reduce heat to medium, and simmer until bok choy is tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer bok choy to a serving platter, reserving cooking liquid in skillet.
Cook liquid over medium-high heat until it is reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over bok choy, and serve.
