Prepare the Peppers:
Start by washing and drying the bell peppers. Once cleaned, place them on a baking sheet or directly on the oven rack. Roast the peppers in a preheated oven at 250°C (482°F) for about 20-25 minutes until they are well charred and tender.

Peeling the Peppers:
After roasting, remove the peppers from the oven and place them inside a plastic bag, sealing it tightly. Let the peppers sweat for around 15 minutes, which will help to loosen the skins. Once this step is complete, carefully peel off the skin from the peppers. Be sure to handle them gently to avoid tearing the flesh. -
Prepare the Pepper Sections:
Cut each roasted pepper into four sections, removing the seeds and inner white membranes. You should now have eight pieces of pepper (four pieces from each pepper). -
Seasoning the Peppers:
Arrange the pepper slices on a plate or cutting board, then sprinkle the inside of each slice with a pinch of fine salt, freshly ground black pepper, and chives to taste. -
Assemble the Rolls:
Place a small piece of goat cheese in the center of each pepper slice, ensuring the piece is about the same size as the pepper slice. Carefully roll up the pepper around the cheese, creating a neat parcel. Secure each roll with a couple of chive stems, tying them gently to hold the roll together. For a clean presentation, trim the ends of the rolls if necessary. -
Serving:
Arrange the stuffed pepper rolls on a serving platter. Drizzle with a light stream of extra virgin olive oil to finish. Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful appetizer that combines the sweetness of roasted peppers with the rich, creamy tang of goat cheese.
These stuffed pepper rolls are the perfect appetizer for any gathering, offering a delightful balance of flavors and textures. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or simply enjoying a light meal, these vibrant rolls will surely impress.
