Roasted Red Pepper Sauce is made by roasting red bell peppers until charred and tender, then sautéing with garlic before simmering with white wine, vinegar, paprika, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. After blending to a thick consistency, it yields a flavorful, mildly sweet, and smoky sauce that complements many dishes.
