Step-by-Step Instructions for Thanksgiving Peas
- Begin by peeling the pear and slicing it into thin pieces before dicing them into small cubes. Toss the diced fruit with fresh lemon juice to keep its color.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add diced pancetta and cook for about 5–7 minutes until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towel, reserving a tablespoon of fat.
- With the reserved fat, add sliced shallots to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in Dijon mustard and cook for another minute.
- Add frozen peas and prepared diced pears to the skillet. Cook for approximately 5 minutes until the peas are heated and the pears are tender.
- Remove from heat and fold in half of the crispy pancetta, freshly chopped parsley, and add black pepper for seasoning. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with remaining pancetta and lemon zest.
