BOK CHOY BEEF SOUP


1 Tbsp., olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ onion, chopped
1 lb. beef sirloin tip
1 tsp. salt

2 Tbsp. lime juice
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
1 head bok choy, chopped

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the beef, and continue cooking until beef is evenly browned. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken broth, water, limejuice, and jalapeno. Increase heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Stir in the bok choy, and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix in Chile-garlic sauce.
