Red Hot!

I like to follow YumSugar, becuase they have great beginner tips. So today I learned how to properly roast red peppers! We eat salmon pretty regulary, so roasted peppers is a great side to add!

Clean the bell peppers and remove any stickers. Pat the peppers dry. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Cover a cookie sheet with foil and drizzle olive oil over the red peppers.

Coat each side of the bell pepper in olive oil and place the peppers in the preheated oven.

Every 10 to 15 minutes, flip the bell peppers so each side of the pepper is charred.

All sides of the pepper should be charred after about 30 to 40 minutes.

Carefully place the peppers in a large bowl and cover with saran wrap. Alternately, place the peppers in a large Ziploc or brown paper bag and seal it shut. Allow them to sit for 15 to 20 minutes.

Allow the peppers to cool slightly and peel away any of the skin. It should come off pretty effortlessly

Cut the pepper in half and clean the seeds and rinse with cold water.

** I also will cut the peppers halfwise, then again, in order to get four thin long slices of pepper, and coat them with EVOO and garlic pepper and place them along side with my salmon, while I broil it for 5 mins on each side.. It comes out pretty soft and tasty! :)
