Stir-Fried Snow Peas with Chive Infusion: A Fresh and Flavorful Delight
Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh snow peas, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (like canola or sunflower)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions:
1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
2. Once the oil is shimmering, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3. Add the snow peas to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender but still crisp.
4. Stir in the chopped chives, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chives are slightly wilted and the snow peas are well-coated.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.
6. Remove from heat and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
