Spiced Peas with Cilantro and Lime

If you're looking for a new way to serve peas, try this delicious and easy recipe. 

Ingredients:

1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt

2 pounds of frozen green peas 

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves fresh garlic, sliced

1/2 teaspoon curry powder

1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

1 teaspoon fresh lime juice (or fresh key lime juice if available)

Defrost peas.  The best way to do this is by leaving the peas out at room temperature for at least 2 hours.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add the peas, garlic, curry powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook until fragrant and warmed through (3-5 minutes).  Stir occasionally, but make sure not to squish the peas.  Turn off the heat, add cilantro and lime juice, and toss to combine.

Serve and enjoy.
