Creamed peas are the side dish you never knew you were missing! With a creamy lemony yogurt dressing, they're exactly what you need on your Easter table. Plus, the leftovers may be even better the next day!
In a 4-quart saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the shallot and sauté until soft and translucent, 4-5 minutes.
1 tbsp olive oil, ⅓ cup minced shallot
Add the peas, salt, and black pepper and sauté until the peas are warmed through, 2-3 minutes.
3 cups frozen peas, 1 tsp kosher salt, ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Add the heavy cream, bring to a simmer, and cook until the cream is reduced by half, 1-2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, and tarragon. Stir to combine and serve immediately.
3 tbsp heavy cream, ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tbsp grated lemon zest, 1 tbsp minced fresh tarragon
