Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 heads baby bok choy
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
½ pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup sliced zucchini
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sweet vermouth

  • Stir to coat the vegetables with the liquid. Sprinkle with cornstarch and stir until it mixes in and disappears. Top with the green pieces of bok choy, cover, and continue cooking until leaves start to wilt and the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir to coat everything with sauce. Serve hot.
