CREAMY SPRING PEAS image

NICE FRESH TASTE AND GOOD COMPLIMENT TO ANY MEAL

Provided by Tamara VASTINE

Categories     Vegetables

Number Of Ingredients 10

kosher salt
2 can(s) shelled fresh english peas or thawed frozen peas (about 10 ounces)
1 lb sugar snap peas, trimmed
1/4 lb snow peas, trimmed and thinly sliced
4 oz pancetta, chopped
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 c heavy cream
juice of 1 lemon
freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Fill a large bowl with ice water. If using fresh English peas, add to the boiling water and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add the snap peas and cook until bright green, about 2 minutes, then add the snow peas and cook 30 seconds. Drain the peas and plunge into the ice water to cool.
  • 2. Cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon. Add the flour to the drippings in the skillet and cook, whisking, until toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth and cream and cook until reduced by one-third, about 6 minutes.
  • 3. Drain the peas, shaking off the excess water, then add to the skillet (if using frozen peas, add them here). Cook, stirring, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with the pancetta.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more salt and pepper.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover ham. I added some chopped ham to the sauce, and it really took it to the next level.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it can be improved with a few tweaks. I added some garlic and chili flakes to the sauce, and it really brought out the flavor of the peas.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out as creamy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
