Delicately flavored sole pairs exceptionally well with tart lemons and the mild oniony flavor of chives in this 30-minute main dish. This citrus-herb duo also works well with other white-fleshed fish like snapper, trout, tilapia, and halibut. To prepare the sugar snap peas, bring water to a boil in a saucepan, and place the steamer basket over the water—the water should not come into contact with the bottom of the basket. If it does, remove some of the water before adding the vegetables. Place the peas in the steamer basket and close the top over the vegetables, cover the saucepan, and let the vegetables steam for a few minutes, checking for doneness after 3 minutes and then periodically after that until they are tender.
