Ingredients
- 4 pound Bell Peppers red, orange and yellow
- 2 pinch salt
- 2 pinch black pepper crushed
- 1 ½ oz olive oil extra virgin
- 3 cloves garlic sliced

OVEN ROASTING METHOD:
- Turn on the oven at 430 F° or 220 C.
- Place the peppers on a baking tray, previously covered with aluminum foil and bake them for 45 minutes, turning them every 15 minutes until the skin is blistered and charred, turning occasionally. Alternatively you can broil them in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the peppers from the oven, place them in a reclosable paper bag and let them cool down. (See notes)
- STOVE TOP METHOD:
- Place whole peppers directly over the flame or on a preheated grill/skillet, turning frequently until charred and tender.
- Once blistered, place them in a reclosable paper bag and let them cool down. (See notes)
PEEL OFF THE PEPPERS (both methods):
- Once the peppers have cooled down, remove the skin, cutting them strips that are 1.5-2 inches wide,removing the stems, seeds and white parts.
PLACE THEM IN MARINADE
- Place the peppers in a glass jar in layers, alternating them with a bit of olive oil,salt, crushed black pepper, garlic and fresh basil. Your Simply Roasted Bell Peppers are ready!
Notes
- Placing the hot pepper in a plastic bag is an important tip: this basic process will help you easily remove the skin.
- Rremoving the skin makes the peppers easier to digest.
