I am a huge fan of bok choy! I never knew it until I started on the SIBO Specific Diet. It is one of those vegetables that has never caused me any digestive upset even when I was at my worst. It has such a high water content and feels very nourishing and soothing to eat. Honestly, it is really good just lightly steamed but here is an alternative way to cook it up that is also really delicious. This dish is super tasty, really easy to digest and ready in minutes.

Serves: 3
Ingredients
- 3 baby bok choy
- 2 tbsp. garlic infused sesame oil
- ¼ cup sesame seeds
- ½ tbsp. fish sauce
- 2 tbsp. coconut aminos
Instructions
- Crush a few cloves of garlic and cover with 2.5 tbsp sesame oil and set aside
- Cut off ends of baby bok choy and slice width wise along the whole length and set aside
- Heat skillet on medium high letting it get nice and hot, add 2 tbsp garlic infused sesame oil (just to clarify, do not use garlic, just oil that has infused with the garlic) and sesame seeds. Let seeds sauté for 30sec to 1min. (You don’t want them to start to brown)
- Add chopped bok choy, coconut aminos and fish sauce and mix it all together and sauté for just a few minutes. (bok choy softens really easily and really fast, so it is easy to overcook it and then it will be come slimy)
- Remove from heat and eat!
