Bok Choy and Chicken Stir Fry

[@kanikimcnicholas2077]

Went to the Hilo farmers market yesterday and went wild, decided to try this recipe w/ a few substitutions, I discovered I was out of sesame oil, so I used equal parts extra light virgin olive oil and cooking oil where oil was called for. Also instead of white wine I used Koshiki Junzukuri Northern skies sake, it is mild w/ citrus overtones like white wine, used a medium Maui sweet onion finely chopped in lieu of the shallots. The basic recipe that Chef Jarod provides is very easy to adapt to what you have at home...be adventurous and experiment, hey if all else fails I have a yard full of feral chickens and they will eat anything!! Mahalo Nui Chef Jarod for a recipe that will forever now be in my favorites book of what is for suppa!!

[@silkunion]

You are helping an entire generation of kids learn how too cook. Thank you sir!

[@ChefJarod]

You are very resourceful, every chef/cook should be as flexible as you are in adapting the recipes to what they have locally. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@tlanitat]

I learned to do this because of him. Turned out great

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks for the feedback Lanita. That made my day.

[@janetwatley9773]

I love that

[@sharonsumner3213]

I made this and it was really delicious. Will make it often.

[@JHasselroth]

One more time. We come back often to watch.

[@nichole760-x6w]

So do I. He's so laid back and easy to follow. He doesn't fuss with all the fancy brands you can only find in specialty stores, it makes it easy for a beginner cook.

[@MadamShizz]

I just made this and I must say I like it way more then how I was doing it before. I didn't have white wine but I added a bit more sugar like you suggested and it turned out amazing. I also added more veggies like carrots, broccoli, leeks, green beans, and frozen peas I had left over. Again, this was really good and I suggest people try it.

[@alexandercooks3527]

Looks so delicious...😋😋👍

[@kuuipopakalolo8723]

Omg Chef I'm so happy yt recommends you because bok choy is my favorite veggie. These are nice and healthy feel good foods. This is another meal I will bless my 2 daughter's with 🌺🌺Aloha🌺🌺

[@knapperdad8666]

Thank you Che Jarod we now grow bokchoy in the garden. Visited China in 2000 didn’t know what it was that was in so many delicious meals. Making it tonite. Yay 😀

[@ChefJarod]

Excellent Knapper Dad! I don't have much luck growing leafy vegetables with snails and slugs we have here, but I am sure they are very good and satisfying.

[@JHasselroth]

We loved this recipe last time and we are making it again tonight. Thanks for the great recipe and video.

[@geethikawickramasinghe7752]

Thanks Chef for the wonderful recipe. Definitely gonna try this today!!

[@prateekjain85]

Great recipe! Love the sound of the little one in the background 😀

[@JessicusMaxiumus]

I have made this three times now following your video. This is great!

[@juswantowardojo8002]

JessicusMaxiumus That is great to hear.

[@tesleenmitchell3500]

GREAT video! I have tons of knowledge in the kitchen but lack hugely in Asian cuisine. I love the flavors and want to learn. I never know what spices or sauces to use and the tricks of getting meats crispy with starches. This was a very simple and tasty start. I'll be looking forward to viewing more of your videos. Thank you.

[@vanessashaw5365]

Simple and amazing...

[@LindasPantry]

This looks amazing!

[@cherylgiles9658]

Love your cooking lessons. Simple and tasty. Thank you.

[@driftsupra980]

made it today, it was so good! upload more dishes like these!

[@crysnicole2687]

Just enjoyed this dish with my husband. It was light and delicious! Thank you for the recipe!!

[@ChefJarod]

Yes I have done that, putting liquid on the pan after grilling meat on it. That is definitely doable here, after you remove the chicken, put some water or wine or stock to make a sauce and thicken it with starch or flour. I wouldn't cook the veggie in the sauce, but rather remove the sauce, stir fry the veggies, and then incorporate everything in the end with a quick mix.

[@gp235801]

Thanks for the recipe chef! I tried it and it turned out awesome.

[@juswantowardojo8002]

+Nocturnal Reveller I am happy to hear your success.Good job.

[@bebebutterfield1]

I'm a new subscriber to your chanel and I love the healthy method of cooking. I see low fat meats and lots of vegetables. I love it TY for sharing.

[@21cuma]

What an easy recipe and both ingredients are my favorite 😋thanks thanks

[@nichole760-x6w]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I had bought some bok choy and wanted to look up a good stir-fry recipe. Not only did you do that for me but I finally found the perfect way I've always wanted my stir fry chicken! I had a piece of chicken thawing out and took it in and out in perfect time to cut those thin little slices, the cornstarch marinade made it so tender. I can't wait to make more stir fry recipes with chicken!! I added some cut celery, scallions and a chopped-up serrano pepper for heat. It was delicious!

[@ChefJarod]

You are welcome. I like the varieties of ingredients you added. Stay healthy:)

[@jean-pierrefritz3860]

Thanks for showing us to cut the chicken while still partially frozen, it is so much easier to have even pieces. Great video and Happy New Year

[@juswantowardojo8002]

I'm glad my tip is helpful to you. Thanks for watching.

[@timm285]

If the chicken is still frozen partiality can we cook it?

[@bebebutterfield1]

Ohhhh you make me hungry. I'll make this tomorrow for dinner TY for sharing.

[@everythingwithvi2773]

thank you for the recipe i m going to make it. stay safe god bless

[@susannebrule3160]

Looks delicious! Thank you.

[@rondaderouin7269]

cooked this up and enjoyed with some beef instead of chicken I did cook the root part first to tender it up before adding the tops. I did also added some saseed oil with the veg oil about half and half it was very easy to cook and my first attempt at Bokchoy so I was impressed. Tasted good and I will try again. Thank you for your presentation.

[@garygeller6177]

Great video. Trying your recipe tonight. I have chicken AND bok choy and didn't know what to do with them 👍😉

[@prayerharvest]

Okay...dinner was amazing and QUICK! The marinade made the chicken juicy, tender and taste out of this world. Didn't have shallots but used a medium sized yellow onion (I made four chicken breasts), and added some mushrooms that I had in the fridge. My Hubs was in heaven...these are all a few of his favorite things! Thanks for a home run dinner recipe, Jarod!

[@dominiquefernandez9791]

Omg! I declare myself fan of bok choy! I prepare today oven fish, with some salt, garlic bok choy broccoli, then stir fry more Asian vegetables with coconut oil!! Mm do yummy! Thank you for sharing the recipe:)

[@heavypen]

So simple. I added thin sliced almond and a tad bit more onion and it was great with white rice. A handy recipe for a quick prep dinner.

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks for sharing your positive experience.

[@Clauds71]

Excellent 👏

[@starrygoddessx3947]

I tried this, and it was delicious. Thank you.

[@joeasuncion7854]

I like that... Drinking & Cooking.

[@EdenDali]

I clicked on your video because my son's name is also named "Jarod" and spelled just like yours. We don't come across many that are spelled "J-a-r-o-d". I enjoyed your video. It looks simple and easy. I'm going to try this dish tomorrow after I go to market. Thank you!

[@slavkaj7883]

Hello from Slovakia 🤩 Thanks a lot for this recipe!! We loved it indeed 👌🌹. I do it regularly now. All the very best !

[@ChefJarod]

Great to hear that. Thank you my Slovakian friend.

[@zouavefrench]

Great recipe! I added sliced Scallions and Grated Ginger. Thanks!

[@oiseau4960]

Both the dish and the chef look yummy :)

[@buendia781]

I asked my mother why didn't she taught me how to cook.... I become interested in cooking 'cos of chinese food but not everyone does it good...... But youDO Sir !!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 MY RESPECTS

[@Kidraver555]

I just bought a really good wok and would appreciate watching a wok being used.

[@inahmijares609]

Thank you..i am going to cook this tomorrow^^ Love the voice of your baby here calling you.."papa"

[@juansolo1617]

When I was a kid they would serve this as "Chow Mein" but it was a bit soupier. Was at the Panda Garden in Virginia Beach. Haven't had it since. Great stuff.

[@jessie9267]

Wow thanks so much for sharing I got some bok Choy and did not know what to do with it. But thanks to your recipe.

[@ChefJarod]

Yes the golden grits in the bottom are flavorful. You don't need to clean the pan up. I just don't like sticky bottom when stir frying the veggies. For me smooth/clean bottom pan makes sloshing the veggies or whatever I am frying easier and prevent burning. I could have used the non-stick but I try not to use non-stick due to chemical out gas.

[@swagatasom3429]

Thank you! I just made this recipe. I served with a scoop of rice and it is very tasty. Excellent flavor; thanks for sharing! My cooking was more on the wet side and I would like it to be drier. Please share any suggestion to make it dry. I like simple recipes.

[@juswantowardojo8002]

Hi Swagata: you could reduce the amount of liquid to make it dryer. Reducing cook time will also make the veggie less wet and more crunchy. Hope that helps.

[@NerfGuy48]

Just stumbled on this video and this gives my nostalgic feels

[@Bigwill31g]

What would you use to replace the white wine?

[@ChefJarod]

You could skip it altogether, or good alternatives would be apple cider vinegar, rice vinegar.. something a little sweet and a little tart.

[@Bigwill31g]

ChefJarod thanks I’ll try that.

[@sandynyc1]

thanks, just bought bok choy my first time cooking it this evening. this looks yummy

[@zekestonekiller7456]

Just finished dinner and this dish was exquisite. I ad libbed a little by adding green onions along with the bok choy, but it turned out great.

[@ChefJarod]

That's great Zeke. BTW, your last name is really cool.

[@clamcrabber]

This guy is awesome, I am making it right now.

[@ChefJarod]

You're welcome. I really don't know if there are many kids watching my videos. I am glad if they do. I learned just by watching my mom cooked in the kitchen for many years.

[@ChefJarod]

Yeah .. Jarod is just a name I adopted as my real name is hard for most english speakers. I watched the TV series The Pretender, it's about this guy who is very handsome (not me), and very smart, that he can be expert on any field at any time. But, how did your dish turn out?

[@joycedaniel97]

Lovely, i tried this and it came out well

[@ChefJarod]

That is great Joyce. Good job.

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks for the very encouraging words. Happy cooking!

[@jameswnmcn]

Very tasty. Used red wine instead of white. Added thin sliced carrot and fresh mushroom for umami, texture, color, & nutrition. Added Oyster Sauce, Fish Sauce, and MSG, to final ingredients. It is a "make again" recipe. Thanks Chef.

[@ChefJarod]

You are welcome James.

[@vanessashaw6912]

I can taste this already. Yum!

[@mariebl2386]

my husband is Chinese, so I'll it later for lunch..thanks 4 ur recipe. .muah!

[@marienewman80]

Just made this, I added a little water at the end to give it a little sauce. lovely

[@juswantowardojo8002]

+Marie Newman Excellent!

[@jd3552]

I like the wine condiment.

[@RDaiva]

Just loved! Thank you!

[@helenfruitticher2444]

Delicious! What seasonings did you put in the second fry pan before the Bok Choy? Can any white wine be used? Excellent video

[@Laszlomtl]

Very good!

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks ... The baby is now 2yrs and 8months old. She is very talkative.

[@Xcorgi]

Great tasty and healthy stir fry dish. Most westerners don’t realize how many vitamins are packed in Bok Choy 🥬

[@ela_skvela1823]

Thank you very much for showing. It is really helpful :-)

[@ChefJarod]

You are very welcome. My daughter wants a dog also.

[@lanellyoung1634]

Love it. Thank you

[@ChefJarod]

You are welcome.

[@inahmijares609]

Wow..i think your baby is adorable..^^

[@skipstah70]

awesome!! Looks tasty... thank you!

[@JoshLavian]

Looks really good. Thank you for the recipe, sir. Subbed.

[@ChefJarod]

Starch tenderizes the meat. It also coats the chicken and when stir fried makes the chicken a little crisp. A little bit of starch won't make the pan too sticky.

[@marissawilliams3396]

So can I use a meat tenderizer as an alternative if I don't have the starch?

[@dbkfrogkaty1]

That's a delicious looking dish. I'm gonna have to try it soon. I have not had Bok Choy in a long time. (Wife doesn't care for it but I like it) One thing though my man, you need to get a wok. So much better for stir frying.

[@Love_ministry]

I always use wine, for cooking. Red or white, all are good. I add sweet wine. Also ginger and garlic. Will be cooking this 2 days from now

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks much. My wife loves this dish, and so do I. My kids only eat the chicken and shy away from the veggies:)

[@lovetocook4957]

I am very passionate about cooking, I am very happy to know your youtube channel

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks for watching!

[@LisaGimber-uk6cc]

What the brand of your pan? Your dood looks so good! Thanks.

[@LisaGimber-uk6cc]

Sorry, food not dood

[@ChefJarod]

Hi Lisa .it's a kitchenaid. Thanks for watching.

[@ChefJarod]

Yes sure. The white wine is to add a little bit of sweetness. You can subsitute with a tsp of sugar if you'd like.

[@vanessashaw6912]

Thanks!

[@ChefJarod]

The white powder is corn starch ... I need to improve on my enunciation. Thanks for watching.

[@junubbm2251]

Excellent food

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks Junu.

[@nadarocker7605]

This looks so good! Could I substitute shaoxing for the white wine, or should I just stick with the white wine?

[@ChefJarod]

Yeah sure .. shaoxing will work very well with this dish.

[@hearsthewater]

Looks yummy, but why did you clean the pan before you added the veg? I would think that the beautiful, golden fond on the bottom of the pan would only add to the finished product...making it more flavorful and thickening the sauce with the corn starch you added in the marinade. Is there some reason I am missing?

[@Mrstitan34]

What was the white powder? I think you said Sludge and I have made that before to make General Chicken but it was wet and the corn starch is what makes it not drip but you can tear it...it was strange but turned out great for the chicken. So what was the white powder because i have never seen that before called sludge.

[@taneanbethay2968]

Deborah Barber The cornstarch helps with the consistency of the sauce as also it is great when you want to have a more transparency with your sauce ,all the great colors you used to create your dish.The sugar will create a shine to it and aid as an flavor enhancer,so perfect.

[@gregorythorson8718]

Great video! Cheers

[@vianegativa85]

Great video and nice stove, sir.

[@creativetips97]

I tried it and liked it very much. Didn't have bok choy so I used spinach. How do you get more sauce. It didn't have enough sauce for rice? Look forward to more great dishes.

[@ChefJarod]

You could double up on the liquid .. more water and lesser of the salty stuff .. should be just fine.

[@ChefJarod]

You are welcome. I appreciate you trying it out.

[@Flockstars]

Amazing

[@laxmirai3315]

Sir we don't take any kind of wine so instead of wine what shall we use. If you suggest the alternative I will be very thankful.

[@ChefJarod]

Hi Laxmi, you could use 1/2 tsp of sugar diluted in few tablespoons of water. Or any clear fruit juice will work. The wine was just to add a slight sweetness to the dish.

[@laxmirai3315]

@@ChefJarod Thank you sir

[@billysexton]

Thank you, that was delicious !!!!

[@ChefJarod]

You are welcome Billy.

[@queenofweaves916]

I want to make this tomorrow night for my family, but do I need to add the sugar? I don't want it to taste sweet.

[@ulrichenevoldsen8371]

I was getting ready to make some stir fry and had picked some pak choi when I looked for a recipe on KZbin and found yours. so I marinaded the chicken like you did and am now waiting for it sit for an hour. I look forward to trying this. I have Chinese wine so will use that. and maybe a bit of water to make some sauce with it. thanks

[@ChefJarod]

That is great news. Congratulations!

[@ChefJarod]

Thanks very much.

[@Xcorgi]

Looks really good but wouldn’t it be easier to cook it in a wok?

[@ChefJarod]

If you are used to using wok it would be easier, otherwise, it's also easy on a pan. Thanks.

[@marieanne2638]

Hi from New Caledonia. Could you write the name of the white powder you add to the chicken ? Thanks for this recipee.

[@juswantowardojo8002]

It is corn starch.

[@shobana966]

Do you use light soy sauce or dark soy sauce?

[@ChefJarod]

I used light soy sauce for this dish. Thanks.

[@SuperJewelzz]

I love working with frozen chicken breast also, its so much easier to cut.
