ROASTED MARINATED SWEET PEPPERS
Although it's very tempting to buy a pre-jarred marinated pepper, there's nothing that tastes as good as one that you char in your own fireplace, and marinade with carefully-chosen olive oil. Prepared with care, this dish will never disappoint.

Steps:
- Prepare a hot fire in a gas or charcoal grill or preheat a grill pan or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Place the peppers on the grill or in the grill pan or skillet, and cook them, turning frequently, until they are charred on all sides and the flesh is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. (Alternatively, you can cook the peppers over the direct flame of a gas stove.)
- Place the peppers in a plastic bag or a large bowl. Close the bag or seal the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set the peppers aside to steam until they are cool enough to handle. Rub off the charred skin, but do not rinse them with water. De-stem and open up the peppers and slide off the core and seeds.
- Rip the peppers into big strips and layer them in a 1-quart (1L) canning jar. Scatter the garlic slices and basil leaves between each layer and pour some marinade made with the olive oil, vinegar, anchovies, capers and salt on each layer.
- Set the peppers aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes, or until you are ready to serve them. Store with the jar lid on, refrigerated for up to several days. Bring the peppers to room temperature before serving.

- Arrange peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake until blackened and soft, 25-30 minutes, turning once or twice.
- Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let stand 10 minutes (this helps steam the peppers in their skins, and makes skin removal easier).
- Meanwhile, make the marinade: combine oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, leaves from about half the thyme, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- While peppers are still hot, slip off the skin and scrape out seeds; remove stems.
- Cut each pepper into quarters.
- Add roasted peppers to the marinade and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
- To serve, arrange peppers on 4 plates, garnish with olives, oranges and remaining thyme, and crumble goat cheese over and season with additional freshly ground pepper.
- Note: instead of all red wine vinegar, you can use 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar and 1 teaspoon balsamic, for even deeper and sweeter flavor. Chopped basil is also a delicious garnish.

Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: For this recipe, it's best to use sweet peppers, such as bell peppers or mini sweet peppers. They should be firm and brightly colored.
- Slice the peppers thinly: This will help them marinate more evenly and absorb the flavors of the marinade better.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives these peppers their tangy flavor. Be sure to use a combination of vinegar, oil, herbs, and spices that you enjoy.
- Let the peppers marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will give them time to absorb all the flavors of the marinade. You can marinate them for longer if you like, but 30 minutes is the minimum recommended time.
- Serve the peppers chilled: These peppers are best served chilled, either as an appetizer or as a side dish. They can also be used in salads, sandwiches, or wraps.
