Notes & Tips

  • Roast the Peppers: To roast red peppers on the grill, place clean fresh red peppers directly on the grill top. You can also put them directly over the flame on your stove. Turn your peppers frequently, as needed until the skin has turned completely black and starts to blister. When the entire pepper skin has turned black, remove the peppers from the grill and place them into a bowl. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil or place in a paper bag for 10 minutes to steam, which will make peeling easier. Once cooled, peel off the skins, remove the stems and seeds.
