Ingredients
- 4 large red bell peppers
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- salt to taste
- Red chili flakes for garnish
Instructions
- To roast the peppers in the oven, slice the red peppers in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds, stems and innards. Set the peppers onto a baking sheet skin sides up (aluminum foil or parchment paper will make for easy cleanup), and bake for 20-30 minutes at 400 degrees F (220C), until the skins are blackened and blistered, turning occasionally to evenly roast the peppers.
- To roast the peppers over an open flame on the stovetop, turn a gas flame to HIGH. Set the whole peppers directly over the flame. Turn the peppers occasionally with tongs until all sides are blackened and blistered evenly, 5-10 minutes total.
- To roast the peppers on the grill, produce a HIGH FLAME on your grill. Place the whole red peppers directly onto the lightly oiled grates. Allow skin to blacken and bubble up. It will do so in about 2-3 minutes. Flip the peppers and blacken all sides to evenly roast the peppers.
- Allow the peppers to cool enough to handle. Transfer them to a glass bowl and cover them with plastic wrap or a paper towel, or place them into baggies or paper bags to let the skins steam and loosen.
- Carefully peel away or rub off and discard the charred skins.
- Use as desired. For a snack or side dish, chop them, add to bowl then drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and chili flakes.
Notes
- For Storing, add to a storage container or glass container with the juices, cover, and refrigerate. Will last up to 1 week.
- Or, cover with olive oil in a jar, then seal and refrigerate. Should last 2 weeks this way.
- You can also freeze roasted red peppers for 6 months or longer in sealed baggies or containers.
- NOTE: Calories and nutritional values estimated without olive oil.
