    Recipe Introduction


    A lovely exaggeration of the French technique of cooking peas with a little lettuce, this light dish goes well with mildly seasoned seafood or chicken.

    List of Ingredients




    Peas & Lettuce


    4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
    2 cups shelled fresh peas, (3 pounds unshelled)
    1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
    4 cups thinly sliced Boston lettuce, (about 1 small head)
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Freshly ground pepper, to taste

    Recipe





    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.

    Add peas and stir to coat with oil.

    Cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until beginning to brown, about 4 minutes.

    Stir in mint and cook for 30 seconds.

    Add lettuce, cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.

    Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
