- 1 14- ounce package frozen edamame (shelled soybeans)
- 1 ½ teaspoons sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic minced (about 1 teaspoon)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Cook edamame according to package directions. Drain.
While edamame is cooking, heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add sesame seeds, and cook until lightly toasted, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Remove from heat, and place in a small dish.
With the same skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Once oil is heated, add garlic and cook about 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
Add oil, garlic, sesame seeds, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to drained edamame. Stir well, and serve.
- Add another teaspoon of lemon juice, if desired.
