3 to 4cupssugar snap peas,trimmed, rinsed, dried
3tablespoonsolive oil
1tablespoonminced garlic
½cuppanko crumbs
¼cupgrated Parmesan cheese
2tablespoonsfinely chopped fresh parsley
salt and fresh ground black pepper,to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400˚F.
Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper and set aside.
Combine sugar snap peas, olive oil, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl and toss to coat.
Mix the panko crumbs, grated parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
Add the panko mixture to the sugar snap peas and toss until well combined.
Arrange the sugar snap peas on the baking sheet in a single layer. Gently press the crumbs onto the surface of the peas.
Pat dry the snap peas: Moisture on the snap peas could prevent the crumb mixture from sticking properly. Pat the peas dry thoroughly after rinsing them.
Press the crumbs onto the peas: After you've tossed the peas in the crumb mixture, take a moment to gently press the crumbs onto the surface of the peas. This can help to ensure the crumbs adhere better.
Refrigerate before cooking: If you have time, refrigerate the coated snap peas for 15 to 30 minutes before roasting. This can help set the crumb coating.
If you want to spice up the peas, add some red pepper flakes or hot sauce before popping them in the oven.
Give them a spritz of fresh lemon juice for a slight tangy kick after roasting.
Throw in some chopped almonds or toasted pine nuts for that extra bit of crunch.
