Lemon Tarragon Peas

This is a really nice flavor combination.  The tarragon isn't too strong and the lemon adds a little brightness to it.  Yum!

Serves 4 adults as a side dish.  Takes about 15 minutes to cook from start to finish.

Ingredients:

16 oz. bag of frozen peas

1 t. sugar

1/2 t. salt

2 T. butter (I recommend using 1 1/2 T.)

1 t. minced fresh tarragon (or 1/2 t. dried)

1/2 t. grated lemon peel

1 t. lemon juice

salt and pepper to taste

How:

Place peas, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan and add just enough water to cover.  Boil, then reduce and simmer for 6 minutes.  Drain

Return the peas to the saucepan and add all the remaining ingredients.  Stir until the butter is melted.  

Enjoy!
