ITALIAN PEAS

2 tbsp olive oil

3/4 cup chopped onion

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 lb frozen green peas

1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1/2 tsp salt (I recommend only 1/4 tsp)

1/4 tsp black pepper

Heat oil in a lidded skillet over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the frozen peas, broth, salt and pepper. Cover and cook until peas are tender, about 10 minutes.
