Chicken Bok Choy   雞胸肉炒白菜

Growing up in Taiwan, this is the dish that I always counted on my mom making at least a couple times a week. Sometimes with dwarf Bok Choy, other times with regular Bok Choy, either way it was always delicious. There's nothing complex about this dish or its taste. But its clean simple flavor is a perfect companion to go with any other dishes. Create a perfect vegetarian version by removing the chicken from the recipe.
