Ingredients
- 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh chives
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp. Freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 bunch asparagus
- 1 c. Fresh Peas

Directions

Twist the ends of the plastic wrap to seal. Refrigerate the herb butter until firm, at least 1 hour or up to 2 days.

Add the peas and garlic, and sauté until the asparagus and peas are just tender, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, and red pepper flakes to taste, and sauté for 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large platter.
- Step 3Slice chilled herb butter into 1/2-inch-thick disks; serve with warm vegetables.
