Sautéed Sugar Snap Peas and Snow Peas are a delicious way to prepare fresh sugar snap and snow peas. You can season them simply with olive oil, Kosher salt, and pepper, or customize them with your favorite seasonings.
Hi Everyone,
Sautéeing is one of my favorite ways to prepare vegetables, especially Sugar Snap Peas, and Snow Peas.
They are clean and bright in how they taste.
You can make them crunchy and less cooked or make them more cooked and even charred, depending on your preferences.
The Sugar Snap Peas and Snow Peas in the photos in this post are from Roots to River Farm in Solebury, PA; I got them from my CSA share box.

Sugar snap peas are a crowd-pleaser, especially with children.
Sugar Snap Peas have a natural sweetness to them.
I have found that preparing this side dish helps immensely with getting kids to eat their vegetables.

You can prepare this dish to have as a part of a meal: 1 protein or meat and 2 sides or 3 sides.
I love to have this over steamed rice with Asian seasons, like garlic and soy sauce.
They are great with other sauteed vegetables too!
I love how this recipe cooks up in 5 minutes or less!
To prepare the peas, just snap off or cut off the tough ends and rinse in a colander.
You can obtain Sugar Snap Peas and Snow peas year-round in most grocery stores.
However, if you want to get them freshly grown, locally, here, in the Mid-Atlantic region, specifically New Jersey, they are grown from mid-June through late July for both varieties of peas.
On the West Coast of the United State, in California, both varieties are available from late-Winter through late Spring.
