How to Make Best Ever Peas And Peanuts

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup shelled fresh or frozen peas, 1/2 cup roasted unsalted peanuts (chopped), 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, and 1 tablespoon lime juice.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the peas to chill. For best results, chill for 4-6 hours.
  4. Serve chilled and enjoy! Garnish with extra mint or a sprinkle of chopped peanuts if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
