Sugar Snap Peas With Lime-And-Basil Dressing

 

1 1/2 pounds fresh sugar snap peas

2 small limes

2 tablespoons honey

4 teaspoons fresh basil, minced

2 teaspoons olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup vertically sliced purple onion

 

Trim ends from peas. Place in a saucepan; cover with water, and bring to a boil.

Cook for 3 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain. Rinse with cold water; drain

well, and set aside.

Peel and section limes over a bowl, reserving 2 tablespoons juice. Dice lime

sections; set sections aside.

Combine reserved juice, honey, basil, olive oil, and salt in a bowl; stir with a

wire whisk until blended.

Combine peas, lime sections, and onion in a bowl; add lime juice mixture, and

toss gently to coat.
