Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Butter Baby Bok Choy.
Step 1
Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat and melting a generous pat of butter.
Step 2
As the butter begins to sizzle, toss in some smashed garlic cloves and a fragrant bay leaf.
Step 3
Stir them gently, allowing the garlic to turn a lovely golden brown, which should take about five minutes.
Step 4
Next, pour in a splash of chicken stock and a good measure of white wine, then turn up the heat to bring this delightful mixture to a vigorous boil.
Step 5
Keep an eye on it and stir frequently as the sauce reduces down to about one cup, which will take around 15 minutes.
Step 6
Once it’s beautifully thickened, don’t forget to fish out the bay leaf—it’s done its job! Now, take your bok choy halves and place them cut side down into the rich sauce.
Step 7
Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and let the bok choy cook until it’s tender, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 8
When it’s ready, serve the bok choy with that luscious sauce generously spooned over the top.
Step 9
Enjoy this vibrant dish that’s not only delicious but also a feast for the eyes!.
