Bok Choy with Ground Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

What you’ll learn:

  • Simple, 15 minute stir fry recipe for baby bok choy
  • Use any ground meat (chicken, pork, turkey, beef)
  • Step by step video

This is one of our “house recipes” – something I make quite often and practically with my eyes closed. There’s no measurement, no weighing, just what you’d call a dump-n-stir, except this is more like a throw-in-n-stir-fry.

Bok Choy with Ground Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

The great thing about stir fries is that a little meat goes a long ways. Just 1/2 pound of ground chicken will feed 4 people. You can sub with any type of ground meat – I like chicken best.

If you don’t have baby bok choy, sub with Napa Cabbage, regular Bok Choy, or any leafy vegetable like kale!
