Best 3 Ham And Peas Casserole Recipes

CHEESY GNOCCHI CASSEROLE WITH HAM AND PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high heat.
• Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the ham and thyme and continue to cook until the ham is lightly browned.
• Add the chicken broth and 3/4 cup water and bring to a simmer. Add the gnocchi, stir well, cover and cook until the gnocchi is slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Uncover and stir in the peas, cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle the cheese over the top and broil until golden and bubbly, about 3 minutes. Serve.

BLACK-EYED PEAS AND HAM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Rinse the black-eyed peas with cold running water and discard any stones or shriveled peas. Into a 6-quart Dutch oven, place the peas, bay leaf and enough water to cover, and heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes or until peas are almost tender. Drain peas, keeping 2 cups of the liquid. Discard bay leaf. (Can be done up to 2 days ahead to this point. Refrigerate until ready to proceed with recipe.).
• Saute onion in olive oil, over medium heat, until partially cooked and translucent, 5-6 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F Empty peas into a 4-quart baking dish and add all remaining ingredients (including onions and reserved bean water). Stir to distribute ingredients evenly throughout casserole. Taste some of liquid and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until hot and bubbly. The casserole will be quite 'wet' and should be served in bowls. Even better the next day.
