Snow Peas with Orange Zest and Garlic
Recipe and Image Copyright © 2003-2010 Jennifer Iserloh
I wrote this recipe for my good friend Phil who enjoyed it during Tammi’s wonderful Christmas dinner shared in Vermont. Anyone who has minimal cooking experience will like this recipe and even my husband, the reluctant cook, prepared it for us all. Just be sure not to overcook the snow peas.
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon trans-fat free margarine
1 medium orange, zested
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Non-stick cooking spray
1 pound fresh snow peas
Directions
Combine the garlic, margarine, orange zest, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. With the back of a metal teaspoon mash the margarine until the garlic and zest are well combined. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Coat with a thin layer of cooking spray. Add the snow peas and margarine at once. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often, until the margarine coats the peas and they begin to turn a shade darker green. Transfer to a medium bowl and serve immediately.
Make It A Meal
Serve with Roasted Lemon Chicken or a Baked Sweet Potato.

Ok, I may be a little bias, but these are the best! Simple, clean, easy to make – and oh the crisp flavor – you can’t go wrong. Listen to the skinny chef: she knows her stuff. My highest recommendation and I not a veggie man by nature, let alone fresh ones. Make this now you will not be disappointed!
