Bok Choy with Pine Nuts and Sesame Seeds

This Asian-inspired bok choy dish with pine nuts and toasted sesame seeds tastes delicious over jasmine rice. If you use normal-sized bok choy, slice it in half before cooking. You can cook any green leafy vegetables this way and if you want a vegetarian version, just omit the fish sauce.

Heat sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over low heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until soft, about 5 minutes. Add bok choy and continue to stir-fry.
