The ultimate crunchy satisfaction! Crispy Sugar Snap Peas are the perfect side dish or snack, bursting with fresh flavor and easy to make. Enjoy these delightful peas roasted to perfection and seasoned just right. You won't be able to resist making them tonight!
Preheat your oven to 450ºF. This high heat is crucial for achieving that crispy texture.
Take the fresh sugar snap peas and wash them thoroughly under cold water. Make sure to dry them completely afterward, as moisture can prevent them from crisping up.
In a mixing bowl, toss the dried sugar snap peas with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Ensure that all the peas are evenly coated. This will help the seasoning stick and promote even cooking.
Add 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper, 1 1/2 teaspoons of homemade ranch seasoning, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of spicy dry rub mix into the bowl. Toss again until the peas are well-seasoned. This mixture will create a delightful flavor profile.
Next, arrange the seasoned sugar snap peas in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Do not overcrowd them, as this will lead to steaming rather than crisping.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the peas for about 20 minutes, or until they are crispy and slightly browned. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
Once they are done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the Crispy Sugar Snap Peas to cool for a minute before serving. The aroma will be irresistible!
Serve them warm as a snack or side dish. Enjoy the satisfying crunch and burst of flavor!
