BABY BOK CHOY WITH OYSTER SAUCE
We love the combination of bright green vegetables such as bok choy or broccoli and oyster sauce. Garlicky and a little spicy, this version has a sweet-acidic punch from the addition of balsamic vinegar which has similar qualities to Chinese black vinegar. Recipe developed by Food Network Kitchen.

BABY BOK CHOY WITH OYSTER SAUCE
This is among the easiest, most flavorful preparations of greens imaginable, and it pairs beautifully with almost any vaguely Asian roasted meat or fish. It is also exceptional on its own, with rice. You could swap out the bok choy for broccoli, if that's all you have, or chard, or beet greens.

Steps:
- Stir the oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil and sugar in a bowl until well combined; set aside. Wash the bok choy well to remove any grit and drain in a colander, leaving some water clinging to the leaves. Halve any large heads lengthwise.
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half each of the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until just softened, about 30 seconds. Add half of the bok choy and stir to coat. Cook until the bok choy is crisp-tender at the stem, 4 to 5 minutes; add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to keep a bit of moisture in the skillet and prevent the garlic from burning. Remove to a platter.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet and repeat with the remaining garlic, ginger and bok choy. When tender, return the first batch of bok choy to the skillet and heat through. Transfer all the bok choy to the platter and drizzle with the sauce.

- For the stir-fry: Heat a wok over high heat and, when the wok starts to smoke, add the peanut oil. Add the ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds. Then add the chicken, let settle for 1 minute, and then stir-fry for 3 minutes more. As the chicken starts to turn opaque, add the rice wine and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Stir in the reserved sauce and bring to a boil. Add the mushrooms and bok choy stalks and cook for 1 minute. Then stir in the bok choy leaves and cook for another minute. Remove from the heat and stir in half the scallions. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the remaining scallions and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Finely slice the pork and place in a mixing bowl with the rice wine or sherry, soy sauce, sesame oil and cornstarch. Stir to combine, then set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

- Return the pork to the wok and heat through with the bok choy for 1-2 minutes, then serve.
GLAZED COD WITH BOK CHOY, GINGER AND OYSTER SAUCE
This quick one-skillet meal gets a boost of flavor from oyster sauce, a salty-sweet condiment made from concentrated oyster juice and soy sauce that's often used in Chinese cooking. Here, it melds with garlic, ginger and butter to create a velvety glaze for cod fillets. If cod is unavailable, hake, striped bass or even salmon are fine substitutes. Steamed rice, soba or egg noodles are all perfect canvases for soaking up the flavorful juices.
