Equipment

5 Piece Cookware Set

Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) bag frozen edamame in the pod
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves minced
2 teaspoons sriracha
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Flaky sea salt for serving

Instructions

In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, add edamame and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn off heat. Let stand for 1 minute, then drain and set aside.
In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat until it starts to shimmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add garlic, sriracha, and red pepper flakes. Let sit for 5 minutes to infuse with flavor and gently cook the garlic.
Whisk the soy sauce, honey, and lime juice into the garlic oil. Add the drained edamame over the sauce and toss gently to combine.
Transfer to a small serving dish. Sprinkle flaky sea salt and serve immediately.

Notes

Storage: Kept in an airtight container in the fridge, the edamame will keep for up to 3 days. You can reheat it in the microwave for a few minutes or in a pan on the stovetop over low heat until warmed through.
