Tangy Sugar Snap Peas image

This recipe came from QC. I am copying it just like the recipe stated-BUT---If I were you I would decrease the sugar by perhaps two teaspoons we found it VERY sugarey, I also cooked the onions in a little water covered for 5 min., until tender THAN I added the peas and coating and heated for a couple of minutes, the peas were not over done this way. Try it and see what you would recommend.

Tips:

  • Trim the sugar snap peas before cooking. Remove the stem ends and any strings that run along the sides of the pods.
  • Cook the sugar snap peas briefly. Overcooking will make them tough and bland. Aim to cook them for just 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender.
  • Season the sugar snap peas well. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder is all you need to bring out their natural flavor.
  • Serve the sugar snap peas immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh from the pan, while they are still hot and crisp.
