This recipe is quick and easy to make with frozen peas, frozen artichoke hearts, fresh herbs, and that final touch of lemon juice. It calls for a lot of fresh dill, but if it's too much for your taste, you can use less or the equivalent of dried dill.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 pounds frozen peas

  • 3/4 pound frozen artichoke hearts

  • 1 bunch fresh dill (about 2 1/2 ounces), stems removed and chopped, or 3 to 4 tablespoons dried dill weed

  • 3 large green onions, chopped

  • 2 medium ripe tomatoes, grated, or finely chopped, with juice

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 3/4 cup olive oil

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 to 2 lemons, juiced

Steps to Make It

  1. Sauté the onion and dill until the onion softens, add tomatoes and cook for 8 to 10 minutes.

  2. Add peas, artichoke hearts, salt, pepper, and water. Stir well.

  3. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.

  4. Turn off heat and add lemon juice.

  5. Shake the pan to distribute (do not stir), cover, and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
