Step 1

Gather a few simple and get your pan hot.

Step 2

Set a large frying pan over high heat. When it’s hot, add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan lightly. When the oil shimmers, add the snap peas and season with salt. Cook over high heat, sauteing the peas as they start to brown but remain sweet and crisp (about 5 to 6 minutes). Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the mint, lemon zest, and chili flakes. Taste and adjust salt as needed. Serve immediately as a side, an appetizer, or a main with rice or noodles and chili oil.
