• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted

directions

1. Whisk together first 6 ingredients in a small bowl until blended.

3. Pour rice wine vinegar mixture over snow peas; seal packet.
4. Grill over medium heat 7 to 10 minutes or until tender.
5. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
6. Serve immediately.
7. Note: To quickly and easily toast sesame seeds, spread seeds in a single layer on a cookie sheet or jellyroll pan; place on grill or in a preheated 350 degree oven.
8. Stir once or twice while watching closely so they don't overbrown.

My family loves the type of ingredients that are in this recipe. This was very good! I did cut down a bit on the sesame oil and only used half. Watch them carefully on the grill, they cook very fast. Over medium heat, 7 minutes did the trick. Thanks Kree, we'll be doing this again.

Sugar peas are always good and I eat them raw. I found the soy made these a bit too salty for me. I also had to cook them a bit longer. So next time I'll reduce the soy and cook longer and have a terrific side dish. Thanks Kree.

I found this very sweet and when I checked the peas after seven minutes they were grey and flimsy. I think they're done after 2-3 minutes.
