Ingredients 

  • 2 tablespoons of neutral oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic, sliced
  • 1 lb pea tips
  • Kosher salt
  • .25 cup chicken broth, or veggie broth

Instructions 

Blanch, Shock, then Sauté

  • Bring a pot of water up to a boil.
  • Prep the garlic and pea tips – thinly slice the garlic, and thoroughly wash the pea tips (they frequently have dirt). Pick through and remove any that have tough stems.
  • Once the water is at a boil, season the water with salt. Add the pea tips and cook for 30 seconds. Remove and rinse under cold water until cool.
  • Heat a cast iron or wok on high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of neutral oil, then add the blanched pea tips. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Add salt and the sliced garlic during the last 30 seconds. Give everything a stir, then add the chicken broth and cook for another 30 seconds. Taste, adjust seasoning, and plate.

Saute only

  • Heat a heavy bottomed pan (cast iron, dutch oven, or wok) on high heat. Add 4 tablespoons of neutral oil, then add the pea tips. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes. Continue to stir. Add salt and the sliced garlic and give everything a mix. Then, add in the chicken broth and cook for another 30 seconds. Give everything a stir, then taste, adjust seasoning, and plate.
