Ask for a larger raise or just find a new job?

My boss panick called me after I requested a day off (one of many this past month), thinking I was looking for other positions after a year of menial raises. He said I'm crucial for the team, and that if I wasn't happy - to please let him know. Base is on par with NYC swe salaries (I think) but I don't get any stocks/bonuses. Do I say I'm unhappy and attempt to get a larger raise? Or do I just try and find another job which provides a more well rounded compensation package. I like my job and work life balance, it's just the overall comp which is a negative for me.
Base: 140
YoE: 4
Location: NYC

I have this idea that as soon as you your bosses senses that you’re interviewing they’ll match the offer but instantly begin to look for your replacement.
