Why This Recipe Works
Roasting sugar snap peas in a skillet is a simple way to make a fast and flavorful side dish. After adding the snap peas to the skillet in a single layer, we let them cook without stirring them so that they could brown. Once they were crisp-tender, we added garlic and soy sauce and gave the snap peas another couple of tosses to ensure that they were uniformly flavored. Toasted sesame seeds added texture and visual appeal.
