Ingredients

  • 16 oz frozen edamame in shells
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced (16 grams)
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar (24 grams)
  • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce (1 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Cook edamame according to package directions. I boiled mine in salted water for about 5 minutes (2-3 minutes less than the directions called for) before draining. Set aside.
  • Heat a sauté pan over medium heat, then add olive oil and sesame oil until shimmery and hot. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add brown sugar, soy sauce, and ginger, whisking until the sugar is melted.
  • Add cooked edamame to the pan and toss until coated. Season generously with salt to taste.
  • Serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers in a covered container for up to 2-3 days.
