Directions

  1. Put peas in a bowl.

  2. Place potatoes in a pot and cover with lightly salted cold water. Bring to a boil, cook until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain, pouring enough hot cooking liquid over peas to cover. Let peas stand 30 seconds, then drain and rinse peas under cold water.

  3. Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add peas, potatoes, broth, and salt. Cook, stirring, until liquid reduces to a glaze, 5 to 7 minutes.

  4. Stir in parsley and mint.

Recipe Note

My daughter used to call fresh peas 'green candy.' Try them in this simple side dish, which goes with pretty much everything--chicken, beef, or fish.
