Bacon & Bok Choy Stir-Fry

By charlotteh371

Ingredients

• 1 lb. baby bok choy
• 4 oz. slab bacon, cut into 1/2-in. pieces
• 1 tbsp. peanut oil
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 green chili (or Thai green chili), minced
• 1/2 tsp. kosher salt

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse bok choy in a large bowl, and drain. Roughly chop, and set aside.

2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat until very hot. Add bacon and oil; cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon is crisp and most of fat is rendered, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and chili; cook, stirring, until garlic is golden, 1 to 2 minutes.

3. Increase heat to high, and add bok choy and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bok choy starts to wilt and shrinks by half, about 2 minutes. (Stems should be tender but not overcooked.) Remove from heat, and serve immediately.
