Oriental Pepper Steak

"I found this recipe in an old cookbook, and since it looked so good I decided to post it! This recipe is to serve 4 people, but it depends on how hungry you are! The dish uses bok choy, which is a variety of Chinese cabbage with long white stalks and large deep green leaves. Use both the stalks and leaves in this recipe."
