  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp oil

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the sugar snap peas to the pan and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic, salt, and pepper, and stir for an additional minute, until the garlic is fragrant.
  • Remove from heat and serve hot or cold.
