Cut beef into strips about 1/2 inch wide and about 1 1/2 inches long. Place in a bowl with soy sauce and garlic. Let marinate at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile separate Bok Choy leaves from stems. Wash both thoroughly. Slice stems diagonally int 1/4 inch pieces. Set stems and leaves aside separately. Should be about 6-8 cups total.

That seems like a good combinaton.
I have a big wok, and my stove has a turbo burner. I do a stir fry at least once a week.
Love this recipe! We went on a Farm Tour a couple of years ago -- one farm was a huge one that supplies vegetables to WalMart and places like that (not a "local" farm market)... the owner talked to us and said that Bok Choy was the newest "it" vegetable so he was putting in several acres of it. At the end of the visit all the tour participants got bags of vegetables , including baby bok choy. I'd never tried it before that, so I had to go on line to find out what to do with it. I like your recipe better than any I found... so now I think I'll go buy some of the stuff next time I shop!! Nice one.
This is a regular at our table. Once you get the chopping done, it goes together quickly. Try to get a Bok Choy with plenty of green leaves as they cook down to a fraction of their original size.
Sounds great!
