Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (450g) frozen edamame in pods
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch (2.5 cm) ginger, grated
  • 1 red chili, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Flaked Sea Salt, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. If using frozen edamame, microwave or steam them according to package instructions until just heated through. Drain well.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped chili. Sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  3. Pour in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and honey. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
  4. Add the cooked edamame to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly and the edamame are heated through and nicely glazed. Stir in sesame oil.
  6. Transfer the edamame to a serving dish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, flaked salt and red pepper flakes (if using). Serve immediately.
