Bok Choy With Apple Recipes

HEALTHY APPLE BOK CHOY SALAD

Steps:

• Always thoroughly wash the bok choy a few times. You may even need to rub off some of the soil on its large white bulbs. Drain in a colander. Then thinly slice them.
• Place thinly sliced apples and bok choy into a large salad bowl.
• Add the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and salt.
• Toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes up to one hour before serving. Best served chilled
• Serves 6 to 8

BOK CHOY WITH APPLE

Steps:

• Stir fry all ingredients over medium heat for 5 minutes.

SAUSAGE WITH SAUERKRAUT, APPLES, AND BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a large dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the caraway seeds until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape out and reserve seeds.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Working in two to three batches, sear bok choy on all sides until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per cut side. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper to each batch, and 1 teaspoon oil to sear each subsequent batch of bok choy.
• Add 1 teaspoon oil to the skillet and sauté apples with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper until softened but still holding their shape, 5 to 7 minutes. Reserve apples.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet and sear sausages on all sides until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Add toasted caraway seeds, sauerkraut, and broth. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium, cover the skillet, and simmer until sausages are cooked through (150°F for pork sausages, 160°F for poultry sausages), about 10 minutes. Remove cover and fold in reserved bok choy, apples, vinegar, and butter. Cook, tossing, until some of the liquid has evaporated and the bok choy and apples are warm, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve with mustard for dipping.

SAUTEED BOK CHOY WITH BACON AND GREEN APPLE

Steps:

• First, prepare Bok Choy by making a cut about 2 inches from bottom. This will separate it into individual stalks. Make a horizontal cut along each stem to separate greens. (Be sure to wash thoroughly as dirt may be trapped inside). Cut each stem into "half-moons" approximately 1 inch thick. Place aside.
• Loosely chop greens (I find it easiest to stack 2-3 leaves together, roll them, make a horizontal cut, then chop the stack vertically.).
• Add olive oil, Canadian Bacon, and shallots to medium heat pan. Brown ingredients.
• Once ingredients brown, deglaze pan with white wine.
• Add Bok Choy stems to mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Cook approximately 15 minutes until tender using chicken stock to deglaze pan as needed.
• Once stems are tender, add greens and green apple. Cook an additional 15-20 minutes.

BOK CHOY, CARROT, AND APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Rinse the bok choy under cold water to remove grit. Cut crosswise into thin strips; place in a large colander, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Toss to coat. Top with a plate that fits inside the colander; weight with a heavy object (such as a skillet or canned goods). Set aside in sink to drain.
• In a large bowl, mix apple, carrots, lemon juice, oil, and ginger. Add bok choy; season with salt and pepper. Toss.
