Sabrina’s Garlic Bok Choy Recipe

Sauteed Garlicky Bok Choy not only makes a healthy addition to your dinner, but it’s absolutely delicious. It’s a leafy vegetable with a slightly bitter taste when raw. However, once cooked, the greens become more mild. The addition of garlic, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes adds the perfect tangy, savory, warm, and lightly spiced flavor to the veggie recipe.
