Ingredients

Sugar snap peas with garlic is a simple side-dish that takes 10 minutes to prepare. By not over-cooking the pea pods, they retain their crunch and flavor. 

8 oz. (about 3 cups) fresh sugar snap peas

2 tsp. vegetable oil (or your preferred cooking oil)

½ tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. ground black pepper

1 garlic clove, minced

Directions

Trim the stems from the pea pods.

Preheat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.

Add the pea pods, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the garlic. Cook for 1 minute stirring often. Remove from heat.
