Sesame-Shiitake Bok Choy

Sesame-Shiitake Bok Choy

Bok choy’s mellow flavor goes beautifully with earthy shiitake mushrooms in this quick stir-fry. Be sure to use toasted rather than plain sesame oil—it has a superior nutty flavor. For a little heat, add a pinch of crushed red pepper.

  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 2-pound he bok choy, trimmed and thinly sliced
  • 4 cups sliced shiitake mushroom caps, (9 ounces with stems)

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned, 30 seconds.
