Garlic Butter Sugar Snap Peas Recipe
Report
This Garlic Butter Sugar Snap Peas recipe sautés fresh sugar snap peas in butter with finely minced garlic, seasoned simply with salt and black pepper. The result is a crisp-tender vegetable side dish featuring the natural sweetness and snap of the peas highlighted by the rich butter and savory garlic.
Description
In this recipe, sugar snap peas are trimmed and cooked over medium-high heat in melted butter, to which finely minced garlic, salt, and black pepper are added. Cooking time is about five minutes with occasional stirring, which keeps the peas crisp and tender without overcooking. The garlic infuses the butter and peas, providing savory aroma and flavor.
This method preserves the bright green color and fresh snap of the peas while lightly coating them in a buttery, garlicky glaze. It makes for a simple vegetable side that can accompany meat, poultry, or fish dishes.
