Snap Peas And Red Onions Food

SNAP PEAS WITH PANCETTA AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the pancetta slices on a baking rack set in a sheet pan and roast for 8 to 10 minutes until crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, bring 2 to 3 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Fill a large bowl with ice water and have a sieve or colander ready in the sink. Put the snap peas into the boiling water for only 10 or 15 seconds, drain, and put immediately into the ice water. Cool completely and drain. Cut each snap pea in half lengthwise and place in a large bowl.
• Place the snap peas in a large bowl and add the red onion.
• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and lemon juice. Pour enough vinaigrette on the snap peas to moisten. Crumble the pancetta over the salad and add 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Add the Parmesan and toss well.

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH ONIONS AND BACON

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium high heat, brown chopped bacon. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Add onion to the pan. Saute chopped onions 3 minutes or so, until they are just tender. Add peas and water to the pan. Cover and cook peas 5 minutes. Uncover and allow the liquid to cook almost out of the pan. Add bacon back to the skillet and remove pan from heat. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy!

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH FRIED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Make sure the sugar snap peas are cleaned (remove any tough strings from them the best you can).
• After the red onions are done frying, add the sugar snap peas to the hot pan, with ¼ cup water, and immediately cover with a lid. Allow it to steam (be careful with this part though so you don't get blasted in the face with steam).
• After about 2-3 minutes, remove lid (use a glove/towel if need be), stir, then add in 1 teaspoon of butter, 1 teaspoon ginger, and 1 teaspoon of vinegar. Stir, and allow to cook lid off to blister. Another 3 minutes or so. Season with salt and lots of black pepper.

• Add remaining ingredients (EXCEPT PEA PODS) and bring mixture to a boil.
• Reduce heat to a medium heat and add Pea pods.
• Cook until vegetables are tender (about 1-2 minutes) and heated through or to desired crispness.
• NOTE: If you remove pea pods from freezer before you get started and let them sit on counter in package, they will defrost just a little and cooking time may shorten slightly.

SUGAR SNAP PEA SALAD

Steps:

• Combine vegetables and fruit: In a large bowl, add the sugar snap peas, cucumber, bell pepper, mandarin oranges, and red onion. Set it aside, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate it if not serving immediately.
• Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, and black pepper. Slowly drizzle in the sesame oil and peanut oil, whisking constantly until fully combined.
• Assemble and serve: Drizzle about three quarters of the dressing over the salad and toss with a large spoon to combine. Garnish with the sesame seeds. Serve the remaining dressing on the side. This salad tastes even better after the vegetables get a chance to soak up the dressing a bit, about 30 minutes to 1 hour, in the fridge.

HERBED SNAP PEAS

• Combine potatoes, mushrooms, and melted butter in a bowl and toss to combine. Spread vegetables onto the prepared baking sheet and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Roast in the preheated oven until cooked through and tender, about 45 minutes, turning every 15 minutes.
• After vegetables have been roasting for 35 minutes, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add snap peas and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent and snap peas are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Combine roasted potato mixture and sauteed snap peas in a large bowl, sprinkle with green onions, and toss to combine.

PASTA WITH BACON, SUGAR SNAP PEAS AND RED WINE

Steps:

• Put on a pot of salted water to boil.
• Heat up a large skillet over medium. Spray lightly with cooking spray.
• Add chopped bacon and stir. Let bacon cook about 5 minutes until it starts to brown and bacon grease gets released into pan.
• Add shallots, garlic, pinch of red pepper flakes and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir and cook until shallots and garlic begin to brown, about 2 more minutes.
• Add first 2 tbsp of red wine and carefully scrap down the pan to make sure all the little bits are being picked up. Let cook 2-3 minutes and repeat, adding another 1/4 tsp of black pepper.
• Meanwhile, add pasta to boiling water and cook per instructions. Add sugar snap peas 1 min, 15 seconds before pasta cooking time is up. (This will make them tender crisp. Change cooking time if you like them more/less tender).
• Repeat the process with the wine until it has all been used, adding additional salt and pepper to taste.
• Once all wine has been added, move heat to low/medium low. Add 1 tbsp red wine.
• Drain pasta/snow peas and add into skillet. If your skillet is not large enough this can be done in a new bowl. Thoroughly combine bacon mixture with pasta, really scrapping the sides of the pan to make sure all the flavors are incorporated.
• Add 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and 2 tbsp fresh parsley. Mix again.
• Serve and enjoy! I usually keep a cup of cheese on the table for people to add more as they see fit.

SPICED SALMON WITH SUGAR SNAP PEAS AND RED ONION

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon oil, garlic and baharat. Season salmon all over with salt and black pepper. Rub spice mixture all over salmon. Set salmon aside while slicing the onions and sugar snap peas.
• Cut the onions in half root-to-stem, then peel them and slice into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons. Trim the peas and cut them in half crosswise.
• In a large, preferably nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over high heat. Add fish, skin-side down if there's skin, and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer salmon to a plate, browned-side up. (Don't sear the other side; the salmon will finish cooking in the oven.)
• Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Stir in onions and cook until lightly golden, 3 minutes. Add snap peas and a pinch each of salt and pepper, stirring everything to coat with pan juices. Cook until peas have softened and browned slightly, 5 to 7 minutes. Put salmon, browned-side up, on top of peas and transfer pan to the oven. Roast until fish is just cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes longer.
• Squeeze a little lime juice over salmon and transfer fish to serving plates. Stir herbs into peas and onions. Taste, and add more salt and lime juice, if needed. Serve with the salmon, with the lime wedges on the side.

SZECHUAN CHICKEN, PEPPERS, AND PEAS ON RICE

Steps:

• Place rice in a saucepan and cover with water. Mix with your fingers until water is cloudy; drain. Repeat once more. Add 1 1/2 cup water and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil; cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and uncover.
• Mix remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, chicken breasts, and cornstarch together in a bowl.
• Set a wok or large skillet over high heat and add oil. Add chicken, sugar snap peas, and red bell pepper. Cook, without stirring, for 1 minute. Stir or toss until chicken is lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
