Peas are not a go to vegetable for me. I like them but they aren't my favorite. This recipe may have changed my opinion of them. This simple combination of ingredients really makes this dish something to write home about. It takes less than 30 minutes from pan to table. And what put this over the top for me was the dill. Who knew dill and peas go together?
