Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced shallot
  • 1 garlic clove finely minced or crushed
  • 2 tablespoons sunflower seed kernels
  • 8 ounces purple snow peas rinsed and dried

Instructions

  1. Heat butter and olive in a large skillet over medium high heat. When the butter is melted, add shallot. Cook until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add garlic and sunflower seed kernels. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add snow peas and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, tossing occasionally. Do not over-cook or the snow peas will become limp (you want them to have a crunch).
  4. Serve immediately.
