Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 bell pepper red

Instructions

  1. Preheat the broiler and place the rack near the top of the oven. In my oven, this works best on the second level from the top, but you might prefer to use the top level.
  2. Core the red peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the peppers, skin side up, on the foil. Gently press the pepper so that they lay almost flat.
  3. Put the baking sheet under the broiler and cook 15-20 minutes, or until the skins are almost completely blackened. If you take the peppers out when there’s too much of the red color left, it will be much harder to remove the skins.
  4. Remove from the baking sheet and immediately the peppers put into a paper bag. Fold over the paper bag to trap the steam inside. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the peppers from the bag and peel off the blackened skins.
  6. Slice the peppers into thin strips.
