Roasted peppers

This simple, delicious roasted pepper dish is a staple in my household. Sometimes I serve it as a side or a salad, other times it becomes the main dish. It’s quite traditional, and honestly, I can’t imagine enjoying cheese without it. When pepper season arrives, this is always my go-to recipe.

This simple, delicious roasted pepper dish is a staple in my household. Sometimes I serve it as a side or a salad, other times it becomes the main dish. It’s quite traditional, and honestly, I can’t imagine enjoying cheese without it. When pepper season arrives, this is always my go-to recipe.

Ingredients

8 Long Red Peppers (Washed and Dried)
5 cloves Garlic (Finely chopped)
1 Bunch parsley (Finely chopped)
1/2 cup EVOO
1/2 Lemon (juiced)
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1
Wash and dry the peppers.
2
Roast on a barbecue or under the grill until the skins are nicely charred, almost black.
3
Transfer to a glass bowl, cover with a plate, and let rest for at least 15 minutes to steam.
4
While peppers are steaming, finely chop garlic and parsley and place in a mixing bowl.
5
Add olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper, then mix well to make the dressing.
6
Peel the peppers and remove the seeds and insides.
7
Slice into strips, keeping them as whole as possible.
8
Add the peppers to the dressing and toss gently to coat.
9
Let sit in the marinade—the longer, the better for flavor.
10
Serve cold with crusty bread, as a side dish, or as a light main.
