Instructions:
Heat the Pan – Place a medium-sized pan on the stove over medium heat. Add the butter or olive oil.
Add the Peas – Once the butter is melted and sizzling (but not browned), add the frozen peas directly from the freezer.
Quick Cook – Stir the peas gently for 3–4 minutes, just until they are heated through. Avoid overcooking, as they will lose flavor and color.
Season – Add salt and pepper to taste. For extra freshness, stir in lemon zest or sprinkle with fresh herbs.
Serve Immediately – Enjoy them as a side dish or mix into pasta, rice, or salads for a burst of flavor and color.
Pro Tip: Never boil peas in water unless you’re adding them to a soup—steam or sauté for the best taste and texture!
