Brown Buttered Sugar Snap Peas With Pecans Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 1 1/4 pounds sugar snap peas in boiling water until bright green, about 3 minutes; drain. Cook 1 minced shallot in a skillet with 2 tablespoons butter until soft, about 3 minutes. Whisk in a splash of water, then add the peas and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Add chopped tarragon and parsley, and salt and pepper.

Steps:

• With a paring knife, remove the stems and peel the pod strings of the sugar snaps. Set aside.
• Using a peeler, remove the rough, outer skin of the horseradish. (Only remove the desired amount to be used, leaving the rest of the root intact.)
• In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the butter. Gently swirl the butter and lightly agitate with a small whisk. Season with some black pepper. Once the milk solids begin to turn golden brown, after about 2 minutes, add the cleaned snap peas. Toss them twice in the pan, then add the lemon juice and season with salt.
• Transfer to a serving vessel. Using a hand-held grater, grate the peeled horseradish over the top.

Steps:

• In large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the peas until crisp tender, 2 minutes; drain.
• In large heavy skillet, heat the butter over medium-high heat until golden brown and fragrant, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Add the pecans and cook, stirring until lightly toasted, 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in the peas and cook until heated through; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, about 12 minutes.
• Heat oil in medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring, until softened and slightly brown, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Add snap peas, asparagus and lemon juice, and cook, stir for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer pasta to sauté pan, and add 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water to pan.
• Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until water is almost absorbed and peas and asparagus are bright green but tender, about 4 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat butter in small pan over high heat, swirling as butter begins to change colour. As soon as butter browns, about 4 minutes, remove from heat.
• Stir mint and lemon zest into pasta and divide pasta among four bowls.
• Top each bowl with 1- 1/2 tablespoons ricotta, 1/4 of the hazelnuts, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon brown butter.
