Snow Peas with Orange Zest and Garlic

Just be sure not to overcook the snow peas.
Serves 4

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon trans-fat free margarine
1 medium orange, zested
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Non-stick cooking spray
1 pound fresh snow peas

Combine the garlic, margarine, orange zest, salt, and pepper in a small
bowl. With the back of a metal teaspoon mash the margarine until the garlic
and zest are well combined. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Coat with a
thin layer of cooking spray. Add the snow peas and margarine at once.
Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often, until the margarine coats the peas and
they begin to turn a shade darker green. Transfer to a medium bowl and
serve immediately.
