instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the root ends of the bok choy; roughly chop the stems and leaves. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. In a bowl, whisk together the cumin-Sichuan sauce, soy glaze, 1 tablespoon of water, and as much of the red pepper flakes as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.

Cook the beef & bok choy
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the beef and chopped garlic. Cook, stirring frequently and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 4 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned. Carefully drain off and discard any excess oil. Using a spoon, move the beef to one side of the pan. Add the chopped bok choy to the other side. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened and the beef is cooked through. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
3
Cook the noodles
Meanwhile, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water, stirring gently to separate. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 minutes, or until tender. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and rinse under warm water 30 seconds to 1 minute to prevent sticking.
4
Finish the noodles & serve your dish
Add the cooked noodles and sauce to the pan of cooked beef and bok choy. Cook on medium-high, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until combined and the noodles are thoroughly coated. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished noodles garnished with the sesame seeds. Enjoy!
