Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus
  • 3/4-pound sugar snap peas
  • 2 tablespoons good olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Red pepper flakes, optional
  • Sea salt, for serving

Directions

Cut off the tough ends of the asparagus and slice the stalks diagonally into 2-inch pieces. Snap off the stem ends of the snap peas and pull the string down the length of the vegetable.

Warm the olive oil in a large saute pan over a medium heat and add the asparagus and snap peas. Add the salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, to taste, if desired. Cook for approximately 5 to10 minutes until al dente, tossing occasionally. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve hot.

    Tasty, easy to prepare and healthy! The dish has some nice contrasts - the texture of the asparagus compared to the snap of the snow peas - which makes the dish interesting. Everyone we have ever served this dish to has asked for the recipe. Great recipe :!

    I have to admit.. I am shocked how tasty this vegetable side dish came out. I am not a spicy hot fan but I really liked the two pepper combo. I added a splash of fresh lemon juice, dried cilantro and a little white wine in the pan. My vegetables took closer to 10 minutes to cook. So good!

    I was looking for a sauteed asparagus recipe (rather than grilled or roasted and after 5-6 minutes the asparagus was the perfect consistency! Ill be using this recipe from now on to cook asparagus. This time I just added two cloves of minced garlic to the olive oil. I'm excited to try adding snap peas and crushed red pepper next time. Very versatile.
