Sauteed Sugar Snap Peas

Sugar snap peas are one of my favorites.  You don't even have to cook them!  I can just blanch them and eat them as is or in a salad!  Yummy!  This night I served them with Baked BBQ Beef Ribs, brown rice medley, and steamed cabbage.  With this recipe I switch up from time to time.  Instead of using oil I'll use butter.  Sometimes I add a splash of lemon juice as well.  Once in a while, I'd even add some cheese on top.  In the pic above I didn't use the red onion.  Not sure we're I found the original recipe from...

Ingredients:
1 lb. sugar snap peas
2 1/2 Tbsps EVOO
1/2 Tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp finely minced garlic
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, finely shredded
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/3 cup julienned red onion

In large skillet, heat oil, add garlic and ginger and saute briefly about 30 seconds.  Add peas, over med. heat, and toss and cook for 2 to 4 minutes, depending on how large they are.  Add salt, pepper, red onion just ass they are finished cooking.  If you are adding cheese, sprinkle on top. 

Enjoy!
