I cook a lot and cook from a stash of my tried-and-true, favorite recipes with ingredients that I am most comfortable with. But some times I also make an effort to cook with new-to-me ingredients. I love experimenting with different types of vegetables, fruits, spices. It is so much fun in experimenting with new ingredients and trying  new cuisines.

You may remember that I take part in a monthly themed blogging challenge with a bunch of friends which we call it “cookingwithfriends”. This month’s theme is to use a new-to-you vegetable in a recipe. Basically, something that takes you outside your comfort zone and lets you explore a little. I initially choose brussels sprouts and had decided to make some easy appetizing finger food brussels sprouts sliders! I made my brussels sprouts sliders, plated them and was ready to click, then to my bad luck, the day was totally dark and was raining all of a sudden, I couldn’t click decent pictures and ths sliders were not going to be good in fridge to click the next day. So I had to dump brussels sprouts dish and had to come up with a new one.

I bought  some fresh bok choy today and I had to use it while it was still crunchy. So I decided to make Asian inspired dish.  Teriyaky Bok-Choy Chicken with Rice is basically chicken stir-fried with bok choy. I love the combination of chicken and fresh vegetables. The combination of chicken and vegtables was wonderful. If you are vegetarian you can use shiitake mushrooms, tofu, paneer..

A little secret behind Asian cooking is not cooking everything  too long.  The  vegetables must be nice and crispy! Blanch them or saute them in oil, just remember no to over cook them.

Here’s teriyaki bok choy chicken with rice

Recipe inspired from notonlycooking

Ingredients:-

Boneless chicken breasts – 300 gms
Bok choy – 1 chopped or tored
Onions – 2, finely chopped
Ginger – 1 tbspn – very finely chopped
Garlic – 1 tbspn – very finely chopped
Teriyaki Sauce – 3 tbspn for marination + 2 tbspn while cooking
Oyster sauce – 1 tbspn
Dark soy sauce – 1 tspn
Olive oil – 2 tbspns
Salt and pepper
Cooked rice

To garnish(optional)
Tosses sesame seeds
Finely chopped chives

Instructions:-

1. Wash chicken breasts thoroughly. Add 3 tbspns of teriyaki sauce, oyster sauce, salt and pepper, mix well until chicken is well coated with the sauce. Let is marinate for atleast 1 hour(if you want subtle flavors) and if you prefer deep teriyaki flavor let it marinate over night in the fridge.

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium flame. Add marinated chicken breasts and cook it, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through.

5.  Finally add the bok choy and fry for more 3-4 minutes. DO NOT over cook bok choy, the vegetable has to be nice and crisp!

6. Serve the Teriyaky Bok-Choy Chicken over a bowl of freshly cooked rice. Drizzle the sauce from tha pan chicken was cooked in, so the rice is flavored. I used normal rice, you can use basmati rice too. Cook rice with salt.

7. This dish is healthy, filling, and delicious which takes very less time to prepare it(except for the marination time).

A perfect combo would be to serve this delicious healthy bowl of teriyaki bok choy chicken with rice with a glass of wine!

My Notes-
1. While cooking the teriyaki sauce on the chicken the sauce might thicken up, if it tends to burn just try to scrap it together and remove from the pan.
2. To check if chicken is cooked through, try to push a knife through the chicken if it cuts easily and if it is white it is cooked perfect!
3. Most important note, do not over cook bok choy, they have to be nice and crisp!
