Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 large heads baby bok choy, halved lengthwise, or more to taste
0.25 cup chicken stock
3 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add baby bok choy and cook, flipping once, until lightly golden, approximately 2 minutes.
Pour chicken stock and soy sauce into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until the bok choy is tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer bok choy to a serving plate, keeping the remaining liquid in the skillet.
Cook the remaining liquid over medium-high heat until it reduces by half, around 1 to 2 minutes; drizzle over the bok choy before serving.
