Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dinner Recipes     Dinner Side Dishes

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, smashed
8 ounces snow peas, trimmed and sliced in half
8 ounces pea shoots, cut into 2-inch lengths
Coarse salt
1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • Heat oil, red-pepper flakes, and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high, stirring constantly, until garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Add snow peas and cook, stirring, until bright green and still crisp, about 1 minute.
  • Add pea shoots in batches along with 1 tablespoon water. Cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 30 seconds. Season with salt, squeeze lemon over top, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh snow peas with bright green pods and no blemishes.
  • To remove the strings from snow peas, use your fingers to gently snap off the stem end. Then, pull the string down the side of the pod. It should come off easily.
  • Snow peas can be cooked quickly, so it's important to have all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go before you start cooking.
  • Use a large skillet or wok so that the snow peas have plenty of room to cook evenly.
  • Add a little bit of oil or butter to the skillet to prevent the snow peas from sticking.
  • Cook the snow peas over high heat, stirring constantly, until they are bright green and tender-crisp. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  • Season the snow peas with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
  • Serve the snow peas immediately as a side dish or add them to your favorite stir-fry.
