Recipe Instructions:
-
Prepare Peppers: Start by quartering the red peppers and cleaning out the pith.
-
Preheat Broiler: Preheat your broiler to high heat.
-
Oil and Roast: Spray the skin side of the peppers with olive oil mist and place them under the broiler. Roast for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the skins are blackened and charred.
-
Steam Peppers: Transfer the roasted peppers to a paper bag and seal it. Let them steam until they’re cool enough to handle.
-
Peel Skins: Once the peppers have cooled, peel off the blackened skins. Be sure not to wash the peppers as this will remove some of their delicious flavor.
-
Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, combine the peeled peppers with smashed garlic clove, olive oil, and white vinegar. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Marinate: Cover the bowl and let the peppers marinate at room temperature for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together and develop.
-
Serve or Store: Once marinated, the roasted red peppers can be served immediately at room temperature. Alternatively, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to a week. If the oil solidifies, simply microwave the peppers for 30 seconds to liquefy it again.
Enjoy the sweet and savory flavors of these roasted red peppers as a standalone snack, a topping for salads or sandwiches, or as a flavorful addition to your favorite recipes. Get creative and savor every delicious bite! 🌶️🥖
