Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 pound sugar snap peas, strings discarded and peas halved diagonally
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Blanch sugar snaps in a 4-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, 1 minute. Drain in a colander. Immerse colander with sugar snaps in a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking, about 1 minute. Drain again well, then transfer to paper towels and pat dry.
  • Cook shallot in butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 1 minute. Increase heat to high, then add sugar snaps and sauté, stirring occasionally, until sugar snaps are crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Add tarragon, zest, salt, and pepper and toss until combined well.

Tips:

  • Choose the Freshest Ingredients: For the best flavor and texture, use the freshest fennel, sugar snap peas, and tarragon available.
  • Trim the Vegetables Properly: Trim the fennel bulb by removing the tough outer leaves and the feathery tops. Trim the sugar snap peas by removing the stem ends and strings.
  • Slice the Vegetables Thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a Large Skillet: A large skillet will allow the vegetables to cook in a single layer, which will help them brown evenly.
  • Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Fennel and sugar snap peas cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. They should still have a slight crunch when they are done.
  • Season to Taste: Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine for extra flavor.
  • Serve Immediately: Tarragon is a delicate herb, so it's best to add it just before serving. This will help preserve its flavor and aroma.

Conclusion:

This recipe is a quick and easy way to prepare a delicious and healthy side dish. The fennel, sugar snap peas, and tarragon are a flavorful combination that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve this dish with grilled chicken or fish, or as a light lunch or dinner on its own.
