Chicken and Bok Choy Stir-Fry


I had one of my friends mention that she loves Bok Choy now and it is very easy to cook and really tasty...so I set off to find a recipe that has it in it. I got this recipe from Real Simple I have not tried this recipe out but it does look pretty good....and maybe if you didn't like the previous chicken stir-fry recipe you will enjoy this one. Some people may not like chicken very much but I am sure you can substitute the chicken with pork...I am not sure about seafood. Serve with steamed white or brown rice.

1 tablespoon canola oil
4 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 heads baby bok choy, quartered lengthwise
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup store-bought barbecue sauce
4 scallions, thinly sliced


Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Add the bok choy and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Cover and cook until the bok choy is just tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, barbecue sauce, and scallions. Add to the skillet and bring to a boil. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook, tossing, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes.
