Equipment

  • sheet pan non-stick

Ingredients

  • 1½ pounds mini sweet peppers cut in half
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp minced garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh basil optiona/chopped

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine halved mini peppers, olive oil, and minced garlic.
  • Mix well to evenly coat.
  • Spread uncooked mini peppers onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with a generous amount of salt and pepper.
  • Roast for 15-20 minutes.
  • OPTIONAL: Top with fresh basil before serving hot. See below in NOTES for more serving suggestions.

Notes

  • Peppers usually go well with the same thing tomatoes do – feta cheese, blue cheese, and goat cheese. Sprinkle cheese on before serving for a richer flavor. 
  • Change the spices to include onion powder, pepper flakes, or spicy cayenne. 
  • Instead of mini sweet peppers, try this oven method with red poblano peppers. 
  • Add a drop of liquid smoke to the dish to get a smoky flavor without black skin.
