Instructions

Wash the peppers very well and create a small slit with a knife. This will prevent the peppers from burst when sautéing them.
Heat a non-stick skillet to medium-high, preferably an iron skillet or a comal, and add the 2 tablespoons of oil.
Add the peppers and when they're blistered on one side add the onions to the skillet if using any. Try to arrange the onions evenly on the skillet.
Rotate the chiles until all sides are blistered. Meanwhile, continue to sauté the onions until soft & brown.
Remove from heat and add your preferred condiment (soy sauce, Worcestershire or maggi seasoning) and lime juice.
Served while hot or at room temperature.
