Thai Lime Chicken With Bok Choy Recipes

• Meanwhile place fish sauce, lime juice (and zest), sugar, garlic and chilli in a screw-top jar and shake well.
• Boil, steam or microwave bok choy until tender; drain.
• Add lime slices to same frying pan and cook until both sides are browned.
• Divide chicken among service plates.
• The original recipe states to spoon the dressing over the chicken, and top with the onion and cilantro. I prefer to add the dressing and half the onion and cilantro to the pan and deglaze the pan for a minute or two, then spoon it onto the chicken, topping with the remainder of the onion and cilantro.
• Serve with bok choy, lime slices and jasmine rice.
