Sautéed Sugar Snap Peas
An easy and healthy side dish recipe featuring sweet and tender-crunchy sugar snap peas — less than 5 minutes to cook on the stove.
Servings: 6 People
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound sugar snap peas (trimmed)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a large skillet or a wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it’s very hot. Add the sugar snap peas and sauté for 3 minutes, until just barely crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
Notes
Rinse your sugar snap peas in cold water. Slice or snap off one of the tips of each pod and use that tip to pull the string down and off one side of the pod. Do the same with the other tip, pulling it down and removing the string from the other side of the pod. Repeat!
