Ingredients

  • 4 bell pepper medium-sized
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt or ¼ teaspoon of any other salt, including Morton kosher salt, Diamond Crystal brand
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon oregano dried

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with high-heat-resistant parchment paper or foil.
  2. Cut the bell peppers into quarters, then remove the seeds and membranes.
  3. Place the peppers on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil and use your hands to coat them well.
  4. Sprinkle the peppers with salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
  5. Roast until tender and charred in spots, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately. 

Notes

  • Using a mix of bell pepper colors enhances both appearance and flavor complexity.
  • Peppers do not require flipping during roasting to develop charred spots.
  • Omitting peeling after roasting simplifies preparation and retains texture.
  • Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 4 days and reheat gently or serve cold as antipasti.
