Florentine Peas | No Sugar Sweet Life

Ingredients

4 tablespoons Olive Oil
4 slices Smoked Bacon (diced)
6 cups Green Peas (fresh shelled OR frozen)
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1⁄2 teaspoon Sage (minced)
1⁄2 teaspoon Rosemary (minced)
3⁄4 teaspoons Sea Salt
1 pinch Ground Black Pepper
1 1⁄2 cup Warm Water

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed, 14-inch saute pan over medium heat.  When the oil is hot, add the bacon and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Add the peas, garlic, sage, and rosemary.  Season with salt and pepper.  Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.  Add 1 cup of the warm water and cook, uncovered, until the water has evaporated, about 20 minutes.  When all the water has evaporated, add the remaining 1/2 cup warm water and cook, uncovered, for an additional 10 minutes.
