Garlicky Snow Pea and Shiitake Sauté
One of my favorite flavor combinations is soy sauce with melted butter–it’s excellent on most any sautéed veggie or potato. I’ve been using this combination of vegetables since I was in college and I never get sick of it. I did a quick sauté of some shiitake mushrooms, snow peas, and garlic in a little bit of oil, then right when they were finished I added some butter and soy sauce to the pan and mixed them until the butter was melted and the veggies were evenly coated with the soy/butter sauce. The veggies turned out flavorful and so amazing! My kids actually really liked these veggies and gobbled them right up. This recipe paired nicely with the Teriyaki Glazed Chicken Leg quarters and Chow Mein.

This looks delicious Pam and so simple and easy.
I was hoping you would post this recipe, Pam! I’m excited to make the entire meal!
I love the plating. Takes a good eye to make the mushrooms to be so perfectly “randomly” placed, right?
Nice recipe to give snow peas some taste.
