Salt
1 shallot, minced
1 pound sugar snap peas, strings discarded, halved lengthwise on the bias
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/2 cup heavy cream

Finely grated lemon zest, for garnish

Steps:

In a very large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and a generous pinch of salt. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and crisp, about 7 minutes.

Add the sherry to the skillet and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and simmer until the mushrooms and snap peas are coated in a light sauce, about 3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt. Transfer to â¨a platter, garnish with finely grated lemon zest and serve.
