Sugar snap peas with Toasted sesame seeds

I served these with my chicken satay. They turned out perfectly crisp-tender and were so flavorful. And they come together in a snap!!

Sauteed sugar snap peas with toasted sesame seeds
1 pound (1/2 kg) sugar snap peas, stringed
2 t vegetable oil
1 T toasted sesame seeds (see below)

Perfect color!

1 t sesame oil

Toasting the raw sesame seeds: In a medium, dry skillet, toast over medium- low heat until golden, about 3-4  minutes, shaking pan a few times, remove from heat immediately.

In a large skillet, saute sugar snap peas in 2 teaspoons vegetable oil over medium heat until crisp tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Toss with the toasted sesame seeds and sesame oil.

Sprinkle with a small amount of sea salt.

Gorgeous!
