Grilled Sesame Ginger Bok Choy Recipes

GRILLED SESAME BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Halve and rinse 1 pound baby bok choy. Microwave, covered, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Whisk 2 tablespoons peanut oil, 1 tablespoon each honey and rice vinegar and 2 teaspoons each Sriracha and toasted sesame oil. Drain the bok choy; toss with the dressing. Grill, turning, until charred, about 4 minutes. Drizzle with any remaining dressing and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

GRILLED BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Halve 1 pound bok choy lengthwise; microwave, covered, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce with 1 tablespoon rice vinegar and 1 teaspoon each brown sugar, sesame oil and soy sauce. Toss with the bok choy. Grill until charred, 1 to 2 minutes per side, brushing with any extra sauce.

GRILLED BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• In a bowl, mix butter, garlic powder, paprika, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Slice the bottom off the head of bok choy, and remove and clean the stalks. Sprinkle seasoned salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper over both sides of the stalks.
• Lay the bok choy stalks on the preheated grill. Brush with seasoned butter mixture, cover the grill, and cook until the bok choy stalks show grill marks and the leaves are crisp at the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the bok choy, brush with butter mixture, cover, and grill the other sides. Brush with any remaining butter mixture, and remove to a platter to serve.

GINGER-SESAME BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
• In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, bring 1 cup water and ginger to a boil. Add the bok choy; reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until leaves are vibrant green and stems are fork-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain well; discard ginger.
• Transfer bok choy to a serving platter; drizzle with the vinegar-soy mixture, and serve immediately.

GRILLED GOCHUJANG PORK WITH FRESH SESAME KIMCHI

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the gochugaru, vinegar, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of the garlic, 1 teaspoon of the ginger, 1 teaspoon salt, the fish sauce and 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar; mix well. Add bok choy and scallions, and toss with your hands, working the sauce in between and all over the leaves.
• Heat a grill to medium-high or heat a stovetop griddle pan over medium-high. In a large bowl, combine the gochujang, neutral oil, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon black pepper and the remaining 2 teaspoons garlic, 1 teaspoon ginger and 1 tablespoon sugar; mix well. Very lightly season the pork with salt and pepper. Add pork and onion to the marinade and toss, gently massaging the marinade all over the meat (The meat does not need to rest in the marinade before it is grilled, but it can be marinated for up to 3 hours.)
• Grill the pork and onion, in batches if necessary, until nicely charred and caramelized around the edges, and the pork is cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter.
• Serve the grilled pork and onions with the fresh sesame kimchi and rice on the side.

GRILLED SESAME-GINGER BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger. Set aside.
• Pull the leaves off the base of the bok choy and slice off the very bottom of the stem to remove any tough pieces. Wash the leaves individually and let them dry completely on a clean kitchen towel. Brush individual bok choy leaves with olive oil mixture.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Add bok choy leaves and grill until wilted and grill marks appear on stems and leaves, 30 to 45 seconds per side. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve warm.
