This is very good! I used cherry tomatoes and just put them into nonstick skillet with butter and oil, cooked for about 5-7 minutes until they burst with a little stabbing. Then added Roma beans as the farmers market didn’t have snow peas and cooked for a few more. Then added garlic (increased) and shrimp that had been marinated per instructions. Added teaspoon of sugar before stirring in parsley. One skillet meal! Will make again.
