Snap peas are one of my fave veggies to nosh on raw, but they're extra delish when they're quick cooked. Butter, garlic, a welcome kick of heat, and finished with lemon & pecorino. They're crisp and so addictive.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Begin heating the butter, chili oil, and pepper flakes in a non-stick skillet set to about medium. Once heated, add the onions and season with salt & pepper. Stir and let the onions cook for 5 minutes until softened a bit. Next, add the garlic and another pinch of salt & cracked pepper. Continue to stir and cook another couple minutes.​​
  2. Add the snap peas, garlic plus, and another good pinch of salt & pepper. Continue to stir and cook for another 3 - 4 minutes. The snap peas will still be crisp which is the idea. If desired, you can continue to cook them until softened up a bit, but I prefer them nice and crisp for this quick recipe.
  3. Turn off the heat and squeeze in the juice of half of a lemon & add a desired amount of finely shredded pecorino. Stir to combine.
  4. Transfer the snap peas to your serving dish and garnish them generously with finely shredded pecorino and a lemon wedge. ENJOY!
