1 tbsp Vegetable Oil, divided
1 small shallot, minced
1 tsp finely grated lemon zest plus 1 tsp juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp sugar
12 ounces snow peas, strings removed
1 tbsp minced fresh parsley
1. Combine 1 tsp oil, shallot and lemon zest in a bowl. In separate bowl, combine salt, peper, and sugar.
2. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in 12″ skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add snow peas, sprinkle with salt mixture, and cook without stirring 30 seconds. Stir briefly, then cook, without stirring, for 30 seconds. Continue cooking, until peas are crisp-tender, 1-2 minutes.
3. Push peas to the sides. Add shallot mixture to center and cook, mashing mixture into skillet, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir shallot mixture into peas. Stir in lemon juice and parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.
