Best 9 Green Peas With Fresh Parsley And Garlic Butter Sauce Recipes

GREEN GNOCCHI WITH PEAS AND FRESH SAGE BUTTER

Steps:

• Bake the potatoes in their skins until tender when probed with a paring knife, about 40 minutes. (Potatoes may also be boiled in their skins, then removed from the pot and slashed to release steam.) Peel the potatoes while still warm, discard the peels and weigh the flesh; you want exactly 1 pound. Force the potatoes through a ricer, food mill or medium-meshed sieve into a mixing bowl.
• Add 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup parsley, pecorino, nutmeg, pepper and salt. Mix with fingers to form a mass, then knead very briefly to make a smooth ball, just one minute or so. Be careful not to overwork the dough or the gnocchi will be tough. Make a couple of preliminary half-inch ovals and boil in well-salted water to check the texture. Let them bob to the surface and cook for about 1 minute. If they hold their shape, proceed to the next step, otherwise add a little more flour to the dough. It may require a full cup of flour.
• Divide the dough into 4 pieces. On a clean counter or cutting board, roll the dough pieces into footlong logs, approximately 1 inch thick, dusting with additional flour as necessary. Cut each log into 18 to 20 gnocchi. If desired, roll each of the gnocchi over the tines of a fork to make the traditional ridged oval shape (otherwise, random small pillow shapes are fine).
• Sprinkle a baking sheet liberally with flour and line up the gnocchi in one layer, making sure they don't touch. Now sprinkle flour lightly over the top of the gnocchi and leave at room temperature, uncovered, until ready to cook. Fill a large, wide pasta pot with water. Add salt liberally and bring to a rapid boil.
• Put 2 cups of water in a small saucepan for cooking the peas and bring to a brisk simmer. Cook the peas briefly until just done, then drain. Melt the butter in a wide deep skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sage leaves and let them sizzle without browning, then turn off the heat.
• Add the gnocchi one by one to the boiling water. Carefully stir as the gnocchi begin to bob to the surface. You may do this in batches if your burner is not strong enough to maintain a rapid simmer. Cook for 60 to 90 seconds, until tender (semolina gnocchi will take about 2 minutes), then transfer cooked gnocchi to the butter sauce using a wide skimmer.
• Add the cooked peas and a little salt and pepper and gently toss everything together with a large spoon. Pour into a warm low-sided ovenproof serving vessel. If desired, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan and run under the broiler till lightly browned. Garnish with the chopped parsley and scallions. Serve with plenty of grated Parmesan, and spoon some of the sage butter over each portion. Pass the pepper mill.

GREEN BEANS WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook green beans until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• In same pot, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium-low. Add garlic; cook until starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Return beans to pot. Add lemon zest and juice, remaining 2 teaspoons oil, and parsley; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Serve immediately.

PEAS WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and sauté until very fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add peas and broth. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until peas are tender, about 4 minutes. Mix in parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

GREEN PEAS WITH CHEESE AND HERBS

Steps:

• In a large covered saucepan over high heat, bring the water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to a boil. Add the peas and cook 1 minute for frozen and 3 to 3 1/2 minutes for fresh. Remove from heat, drain in a colander and immediately plunge the peas into ice cold water to stop the cooking. Drain and set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the red wine vinegar, shallot, salt and pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to whisk. Add the peas, mint, parsley and cheese and stir to combine. Cover and allow to sit in refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes prior to serving.

GREEN-PEA SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leek and scallions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the thyme and 3 cups of chicken stock, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the stock is thick and reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt.
• Add the peas, bring the stock back to a simmer, and cook until tender but still bright green, about 4 minutes.
• Remove the thyme. Working in small batches, puree the mixture in a blender or food processor. Pass the pureed pea mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl set over ice. Thin the sauce with chicken stock, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the sauce is just thicker than heavy cream. Stir it over ice until it is cool, about 5 minutes. Remove from the ice. Set aside until ready to use. Serve with sturgeon and spring vegetables (see above).

PEAS WITH BACON, GARLIC AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Sauté bacon in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until brown and crisp. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels and drain. Discard all but 2 tablespoons drippings from skillet. Add garlic to skillet; sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add peas and butter to skillet. Saut until heated through, about 5 minutes. Mix in bacon; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to dish; sprinkle with parsley.

GARLIC PARSLEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week.

BLACK-EYED PEAS WITH FRESH SNAPS IN ROASTED-GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cook garlic in aluminum foil about 25 minutes, until cloves are soft. Remove from heat. When cool enough to handle, scrape soft garlic from cloves.
• If using snaps, cook them in salted boiling water just until tender, 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking, drain, and cut into 1-inch lengths. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a small skillet. Add garlic and shallot; cook over medium heat until minced shallot is translucent, stirring and smashing the garlic with the back of a wooden spoon.
• Stir in the wine and vinegar; cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in the butter, a piece at a time, until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in parsley just before serving. Place hot black-eyed peas, and snaps if using, in a serving bowl. Top with warm sauce; serve.

GREEN PEA SAUCE

Steps:

• Warm the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until nearly tender. Stir in the garlic, and cook for a few seconds, until fragrant. Pour in peas, and stir to thaw. Pour in the vegetable stock and evaporated milk. Turn heat to low, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Once the peas have cooked, pour them into a blender and puree until smooth.
• Pour the pureed sauce back into the skillet, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat until the sauce reaches desired consistency.
