Peas and Carmelized Pearl Onions

A nice side dish for Thanksgiving or anytime.
 Use frozen peas and pearl onions. Carmelize the pearl onions in butter and sugar.
 Then add the peas It's easy to put together in one pan and can be made ahead at this point.
Then just finish cooking the peas. Season to taste with salt and pepper, toss and serve.

Peas and Carmelized Pearl Onions
1  12oz pkg or 16oz bag of frozen peas
1 C of pearl onions, from a frozen 16oz bag
2 T butter
1 T sugar

In a cast iron or heavy skillet melt 1T butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle them evenly with the sugar. Cook, stirring frequently until the sugar carmelizes and the onions are golden brown. Add the peas and the last T butter and cook, stirring occasionally until the peas are done, about 5 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.

Enjoy!

  1. 10:50pm and my son came into the living room, asked what the best cake recipe was...I said Hershey's chocolate cake...he goes into the kitchen and proceeds to prepare the batter! We now have a 9x13 chocolate cake in the oven at 11:00 at night! The saddest thing is I'm allergic to chocolate now and I can't have any��☹️��☹️
