Instructions

  1. Gently cook the vegetables. Pour the oil into a large skillet or heavy-bottomed sauté pan. Add the onion, fennel, peppers, and garlic and turn the heat on to medium. Stir to coat the vegetables with the oil and sauté for 10 minutes, tossing often to prevent burning. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and cover partially. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables have softened but still have a bit of firmness to them.
  2. Add the tomatoes and capers. Stir in the tomato sauce and sprinkle in the capers. Cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, until the sauce is reduced, and the vegetables are nicely coated, tender, and shiny.
  3. Finish. Raise the heat to medium-high and stir in the balsamic vinegar. Cook at a lively simmer for 1 minute; then lower the heat to medium-low and cook another couple of minutes. Taste and add more salt if needed. Remove from the heat and stir in the basil and mint. Let the peperonata sit for about 10 minutes. Discard out the garlic, then finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
