Pasta with green peas, basil, and scallions

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Fresh or frozen green peas
2 tablespoons Butter
¼ cup Dry vermouth
½ cup Chopped fresh scallions,
Including tender green parts
2 tablespoons Finely chopped fresh basil,
Or 1 teaspoon dried
½ pounds Freshly made pasta
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

If using fresh peas, parboil and drain. If using frozen, boil to thaw and drain.

Heat the butter in a large skillet and add the vermouth and scallions.

Cook for about 10 minutes until scallions turn soft and the vermouth thickens and deglazes the pan.

Add the peas and basil, turn the heat to high for 2 minutes, and pour immediately over pasta. Toss well and serve.
