Vegan Sweet Chili Edamame
Report
Vegan Sweet Chili Edamame is finger-licking good and ready in under 15 minutes! This salty-sweet edamame appetizer is fun, filling, and perfect for snacking!

Ingredients
- 10 oz frozen edamame pods
- 1 tsp sesame oil*
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2-4 TBSP Sweet chili sauce
- 1/8-1/4 tsp tsp kosher salt (plus extra to taste if desired)
- 1-2 tsp toasted sesame seeds
- 1 TBSP chopped green onion to garnish (totally optional!)
Instructions
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a small pot or saucepan.
- Add frozen edamame and cook for 5 minutes or until tender but al-dente. I always test doneness by trying one first.
- Drain edamame and set aside.
- Next add your sesame oil to the pot, switching heat to medium. If the pot is crazy hot, give it a moment to cool to prevent burning the garlic.
- Add your garlic and cook until tender and fragrant. Next add the sweet chili sauce followed by your edamame pods, salt and sesame seeds. Toss or stir to coat. If desired, you can garnish the dish with sliced green onion.
- Feeling fiery? Let a little Sriracha or ground cayenne pepper in on the fun and take them from sweet to spicy! (y'all know heat is my weakness - lol)
- Transfer to a bowl and dive in while they're hot!
Notes
- If you are purchasing steam-in-the-bag frozen edamame and wish to cook the pods that way, go for it. I feel like mine get overly mushy whenever I do so I like the boiling method best!
- * No sesame oil? no problem! your favorite healthy oil will work. Avocado oil... olive oil... anything goes!
