Steps:
- To Roast Peppers
- Using a long-handled fork char the peppers over an open flame, turning them, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the skins are blackened. (Or broil the peppers on the rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from the heat, turning them every 5 minutes, for 15 to 25 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and charred.) Transfer the peppers to a bowl and let them steam, covered, until they are cool enough to handle. Keeping the peppers whole, peel them starting at the blossom end, cut the tops, and discard the seeds and ribs. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)
- In a bowl or resealable heavy plastic bag combine the mozzarella, the oil, the garlic, the vinegar, the orégano, the basil, the thyme, and salt and pepper to taste and let the cheese marinate for at least 4 hours at room temperature or chilled overnight. Thread a mozzarella cube, an olive half, and a roasted pepper square onto each of the wooden picks and arrange the brochettes on a platter. The hors d'oeuvres may be made 4 hours in advance and kept covered.
MARINATED BELL PEPPERS
The combination of the roasted peppers and the olive oil with the garlic on top of a cracker is the perfect combo. You can serve on crackers as an appetizer of it goes great on top of a nice rib eye or you can even put it on bread to make a sandwich.

MARINATED MOZZARELLA
I always come home with an empty container when I bring this dish to a party. It can be made ahead to free up time later. I serve it with pretty frilled toothpicks for a festive look. -Peggy Cairo, Kenosha, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Brush grill with oil; heat to medium hot. Grill peppers until blackened, 8 to 12 minutes. Let peppers cool in a paper bag. Peel and seed, saving juices. Cut into 1-inch strips.
- In a bowl, combine garlic, vinegar, thyme, salt, pepper, and any pepper juices. Gradually whisk in oil. Toss peppers with vinaigrette, and arrange on a platter to serve.
Tips:
- Select high-quality ingredients: Use fresh and flavorful bell peppers, mozzarella cheese, and olives for the best results.
- Marinate the mozzarella: Marinating the mozzarella in olive oil, herbs, and spices enhances its flavor and makes it more tender.
- Roast the bell peppers: Roasting the bell peppers intensifies their sweetness and gives them a slightly smoky flavor.
- Use a variety of olives: Different types of olives, such as Kalamata, green olives, and black olives, add different flavors and textures to the brochettes.
- Skewer the ingredients carefully: Alternate the mozzarella, bell peppers, and olives on the skewers to create a visually appealing presentation.
- Grill or bake the brochettes: You can grill or bake the brochettes, depending on your preference. Grilling gives them a slightly charred flavor, while baking makes them more tender.
- Serve with a dipping sauce: Serve the brochettes with a dipping sauce, such as a balsamic vinegar reduction or a pesto sauce, to add extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Marinated mozzarella, roasted bell pepper, and olive brochettes are a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a variety of fresh and flavorful ingredients, these brochettes are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
