GRILLED BOK CHOY WITH GINGER SCALLION GARLIC OIL

Steps:

• Heat a gas or charcoal grill over medium-high heat. Alternatively, you can heat a grill pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Arrange the bok choy on a sheet tray, or place in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat. Place the bok choy onto the heated grill or grill pan, cut-side down and cook until wilted and grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for until tender, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from the grill onto a platter. Drizzle with the Garlic, Ginger and Scallion Oil (recipe follows), a sprinkling of sesame seeds and flaky salt.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the tablespoon of neutral oil and heat until shimmering. Add the ginger, scallions, garlic and salt and cook, stirring, to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sesame oil and the remaining 1 cup neutral oil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally and taking care not to let the oil get too hot, until the oil is infused with flavors, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Steps:

• Halve and rinse 1 pound baby bok choy. Microwave, covered, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Whisk 2 tablespoons peanut oil, 1 tablespoon each honey and rice vinegar and 2 teaspoons each Sriracha and toasted sesame oil. Drain the bok choy; toss with the dressing. Grill, turning, until charred, about 4 minutes. Drizzle with any remaining dressing and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

GRILLED BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.

• Lay the bok choy stalks on the preheated grill. Brush with seasoned butter mixture, cover the grill, and cook until the bok choy stalks show grill marks and the leaves are crisp at the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the bok choy, brush with butter mixture, cover, and grill the other sides. Brush with any remaining butter mixture, and remove to a platter to serve.
