1. Begin by preparing your cooked rice according to package directions and set aside.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3. Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet; sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant but not browned.
4. Add the chopped bok choy to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to wilt slightly while retaining its vibrant green color.
5. In a small bowl, combine the black bean sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to create a flavorful sauce.
6. Pour the sauce mixture over the bok choy in the skillet, tossing to ensure even coating. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the bok choy is tender yet crisp.
7. Serve the stir fry over a bed of cooked rice and enjoy the explosion of flavors!
