- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook tortellini in boiling water until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook peas for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Combine cooled tortellini, cooled peas, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, chives, and parsley in a bowl.
