STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY



Stir-Fried Chicken with Bok Choy image

In restaurants, stir-frying is done in extra-large woks over very high heat. To approximate the effect at home, don't crowd the meat in the pan, and make sure the wok and oil are nice and hot before you add the chicken.

This quick and easy recipe for bok choy stir fry goes nicely with any meat. I like to add 1/4 teaspoon chicken soup base (such as Penzey's®) to the hot bok choy. You can substitute 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger for the fresh ginger, if desired.

STIR-FRIED BOK CHOY OR STURDY GREENS



Stir-Fried Bok Choy or Sturdy Greens image

This recipe works equally well with bok choy or sturdy greens, both of which have tough ribs and leaves that have a cruciferous flavor. I steam them for a minute before stir-frying so the leaves won't be too tough.

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 to 16 ounces bok choy or sturdy greens, like collards, or packaged Southern greens mix
1/4 cup chicken broth, vegetable broth or water
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon peanut or canola oil
3 garlic cloves, smashed with the flat side of a chef's knife or minced
1 slice ginger, smashed with the flat side of a chef's knife or minced
Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 to 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, to taste

Steps:

  • If using bok choy, trim off the bottoms and separate into stalks. Rinse if necessary and drain on paper towels. Cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces. If using collard greens, stem, discard stems and chop the leaves coarsely. Bring an inch of water to a boil in the bottom of a steamer, and place the bok choy or greens in the steamer basket. Steam 1 minute, remove from the heat and rinse with cold water. Squeeze out excess water and drain on a kitchen towel.
  • Combine the broth or water, rice wine or sherry, soy sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl and place within arm's reach of your pan. Have the remaining ingredients measured out and near the pan.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 10 seconds, until fragrant. Add the bok choy or greens, sprinkle with salt and the sugar, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Stir the cornstarch mixture and swirl into the wok, then stir-fry 1 minute, or until the greens are just tender. Sprinkle on the sesame seeds. Remove from the heat and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure to have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help ensure that your stir-fry is quick and easy to make.
  • Use a Well-Seasoned Wok: A well-seasoned wok will help to prevent your food from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet instead.
  • Use High Heat: Stir-fries are cooked over high heat, so make sure your wok or skillet is hot before you add the ingredients.
  • Stir Constantly: Stirring constantly will help to prevent the food from burning and will also help to evenly distribute the sauce.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and dry.
  • Serve Immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will help to ensure that the vegetables are still crisp and the sauce is still flavorful.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried chicken and bok choy is a healthy and delicious meal that can be made in just 30 minutes. This dish is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or for a healthy lunch. The chicken is tender and juicy, the bok choy is crisp and flavorful, and the sauce is savory and slightly spicy. Serve this dish with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
