This recipe is similar to our lemon thyme chicken tenders, however, this recipe is made for the oven not a hot pan. Both are tasty.

Lemon Thyme Chicken Tenders

This was a simple recipe that was quick and easy to make. The brightness from the lemon and savory from the thyme, make them a quick hit at the table. This just shows that it doesn’t take much to doctor up some chicken to make your meal become next level.

This is similar to our lemon and thyme chicken recipe, except this recipe is made for the stovetop. The other recipe is better suited for the oven.

Course Side Dish
Cuisine Chinese
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Baby Bok Choy
  • 1.5 tbsp Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 pinch Crushed Red Pepper optional for spicy
  • Sea Salt
  • 1/2 Lemon cut into wedges

Instructions
 

  • Remove any discolored outer stalks of the bok choy and discard them (or save for stock later). Place the bok choy into a colander and rinse with cool water, rubbing any grit or dirt away from between the leaves.
  • Trim the ends and slice each bok choy in half lengthwise. Or if they are large, cut them into quarters. Pat dry.
  • Add the oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes to a wide room temperature skillet. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the oil begins to bubble around the garlic, but before the garlic starts to turn light brown.
  • Toss in the bok choy and spread into one layer. Sprinkle with about a 1/4 teaspoon of salt then cook, without stirring, until the bottom is starting to turn brown, about 2 minutes.
  • Flip then cook another 2 minutes or until the green leaves have wilted and the white bottoms are beginning to soften, but still have some crunch.
  • Transfer the cooked bok choy to a platter, then squeeze 2 lemon wedges on top. A teaspoon of olive oil is nice too, Serve with more lemon wedges on the side,
