directions

  • Put the oil in a 10- or 12-inch skillet, preferrably non-stick, over high heat. A minute later, add the ginger and peas and stir and toss occasionally, until they are lightly browned and their green color is vivid, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the soy sauce and transfer to a platter. Add the sesame oil to the same pan and heat for about 10 seconds. Pour over the snow peas, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

    YUM! Fast, simple and easy! We'll I guess trimming them is a little annoying but my kids were watching a show w/ popcorn so they were happy :) I will make again! I joined WW a few days ago so I reduced the oil (canola) to 1 tsp to make the recipe 3 Points total. Next time I will reduce the sesame oil to 1/2 TBS so the toal will be 2 Points. It had plenty of oil on them! Thanks even my kids enjoyed a few.

    Nice easy and tasty recipe! I might be inclined to add some toasted sesame seeds next time...and there will be a next time! Thank you for an easy veggie side dish that's different!

    Absolutely delicious! There are few green vegetables I can get my family to eat, but these get requested ofen in our house. Even the youngest (8) child cleans her plate! I think I'll add some sliced red bell pepper for some color next time, although these were fabulous as written.

I learned how to cook from my mom, and love to putz around in the kitchen. I watch many shows on The Food Network, too, though Good Eats is my favorite. I have many recipes of my own but am always looking for something that's just a bit different. I am now on the look out for great tasting lower carb recipes, and for natural/organic, whole foods. Feel free to send me Zmail! My photo - this a photo was taken at The Hofbrau Haus in Munich, Germany in April 2007. My mom and I took a wonderful 3-week tour last year and ate here twice. The food was homey and delicious, and the bier was great! I can't believe I finished the whole thing... <a href="http://photobucket.com/icons/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b379/ilikeggs0607/icons/z5587136.jpg"></a><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa9/deo0519/ZWT3/ab_fish_small.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa9/deo0519/ZWT3/ab_sm_small.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/houdini6.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a><img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%203/ZWT3-Participation.gif"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%204/ZWTAB-tg.gif"><img src="http://img355.imageshack.us/img355/3476/mybanner483b81c1ea2dfah7.jpg">
