Steps:
- Directions Saute the onions and bell peppers in 6 tablespoons butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring.

Butter a 9 by 13-inch casserole or baking dish with the remaining tablespoon of butter and set aside.
