Ingredients

  • 8 ounces Brussels sprouts
  • 8 ounces snow peas or sugar snap peas, or green beans
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced oil-packed sun dried tomatoes plus 1 tablespoon oil from the jar
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Blanch the Brussels sprouts in a large pot of boiling water for 1 minute. You can skip this step, but I find the sprouts are more tender/less bitter when you blanch them first.
  • Trim the stem ends from the sprouts and halve them lengthwise. Do this whether you've blanched them or not.
  • Heat the tablespoon of sun dried tomato oil (or olive oil) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sprouts, cut-side down, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown on the cut side (don't flip them until golden brown).
  • Add the snow peas and sun dried tomatoes and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently, until the snow peas are crisp-tender.
  • Fold in the parmesan cheese.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.
