Name: Braised Baby Bok Choy
Yield: Makes 2 servings
Ingredients: 1 cup chicken broth; 3 tablespoons unsalted butter; 3/4 lb baby bok choy, trimmed; 1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil

While at The Boathouse restaurant in Sydney, we sampled a dish of baby bok choy so good that it led us to create our own version. It would be delicious with pan-seared shellfish and Asian eggplant.
