Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 4 heads baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
- 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic slices and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and caramelized, about 3-4 minutes. Remove garlic with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Place bok choy halves cut-side down in the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until lightly charred. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, mix honey and red pepper flakes. Drizzle over the cooked bok choy. Top with caramelized garlic, walnuts, feta, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately.
