CHICKEN WITH SUGAR SNAP PEAS RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, lime juice, water and cornstarch in a small bowl, mix and set aside.
• Season chicken lightly with salt. Heat a large wok over high heat.
• When the wok is very hot, add half of the oil, then add the chicken. Stir fry, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and browned, about 5 - 6 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and set aside. Reduce heat to medium.
• Add the remaining oil to the wok; add the garlic and ginger, stir for 20 seconds. Add the sugar snap peas and carrots, stirring over medium-high heat until tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes.
• Return the chicken to the wok, add the soy sauce-lime mixture, mix well and cook another 1 minute.
• Serve immediately and top with fresh scallions.

SUGAR SNAP JUICE

SUGAR SNAP PEA AND BERRY SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Place snap peas in pot, and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water, and set aside.
• Place about 1 1/2 tablespoons raspberries in a strainer over a bowl, and crush with a wooden spoon. Discard pulp. Mix vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper with the strained raspberry juice.
• In a large bowl, gently toss the dressing with the snap peas, remaining raspberries, and blueberries. Cover, and chill at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Toss with greens just before serving.

ORANGE GLAZED SUGAR SNAP PEAS

Steps:

• Steam peas for several minutes until crisp tender.

• Add peas to orange juice mixture. Add butter and salt and pepper. Stir and heat until sauce thickens.
• Serve warm.

SWEET CHILI-GLAZED SALMON, SUGAR SNAPS AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Combine the rice, 2 1/2 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt on the sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the sugar, lime juice, fish sauce, chili-garlic sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl to make the glaze. Combine the sugar snaps with the oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a separate bowl.
• Season the salmon with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. After the rice has cooked for 20 minutes, place the salmon, skin side down, on the sheet pan (directly on top of the rice) and brush it with about one-third of the chili glaze. Roast for 5 minutes, again brush the salmon with about one-third of the glaze and add the sugar snaps to the pan. Roast another 5 minutes and brush with the remaining glaze. Roast until the salmon is just translucent in the center and the sugar snaps are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes more.

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH LEMON AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Pour lemon juice over peas, and drizzle with oil; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH LEMON BUTTER

Steps:

• In a large saucepan of boiling salted water blanch the snap peas for 1 minute, drain them, and plunge them into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop the cooking. Drain the peas well. The peas may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advanced and kept covered and chilled. In a large heavy skillet melt the butter with the zest, add the peas and salt and pepper to taste, and heat the peas over moderately low heat, stirring, until they are hot.
