Steps:
- Roast the peppers using either a barbecue grill, gas cook top or broiler in your oven. Complete tutorials here.
- Position a rack in the upper third of oven and preheat to 475 degrees.
- Place the peppers peeled side down on a cutting board and slightly flatten. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Spread with about a tablespoon of goat cheese down the center of each pepper strip. Scatter the cut basil, pine nuts, and golden raisins on top of each pepper. Fold each pepper over to create a package (like a canoe on its side). Press down gently to flatten slightly
- Place the peppers on a baking sheet (I prepared the peppers directly on the baking sheet). Sprinkle with breadcrumbs and drizzle with a little olive oil over each one. Sprinkle with cayenne.
- Bake for about 10 minutes, until breadcrumbs turn golden and the goat cheese is bubbly.
- Using a spatula, arrange the peppers on a small plate and tear the remaining basil leaves over for garnish. Drizzle with a bit more olive oil if desired.
GOAT CHEESE WITH MARINATED ROASTED PEPPERS
This went fast! Used banana peppers instead of Anaheims. Store did not stock those. Great appetizer! Serve with French bread slices. The pepper mixture can also be served on the side with goat cheese if desired.

ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICH
Travel sandwiches require good keeping properties. The ingredients have to hold up for hours at room temperature and can't be too moist, or the bread will become soggy and fall apart. In deference to fellow travelers, I choose fillings that taste great but aren't pungent. (Garlic aioli has a place in my life, but it's not within the confines of an airplane.)

Steps:
- If using whole wheat bread, lightly toast it. This will prevent sandwich from becoming soggy. If using a roll with a hard crust, there is no need to toast.
- In a bowl, mash goat cheese with a fork or spoon and stir in chopped herbs.
- Spread equal amounts of goat cheese on each slice of bread or on both halves of roll. Top the bottom half with roasted pepper and cover with other slice of bread or half of roll. Cut in half if using bread, or into quarters if using a ciabatta roll. Wrap each piece tightly in plastic if transporting. The sandwich keeps well for 2 days.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- 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.

HERBED GOAT CHEESE AND ROASTED PEPPER TOASTS
A more-than-one-bite hors d'oeuvre, these savory toasts make a satisfying snack to serve with drinks or to take on a picnic. They taste best at room temperature or just barely warm. Roasting the peppers can done a day ahead, as can marinating the goat cheese, making this treat very easy to put together.

Steps:
- Roast the pepper: Place the bell pepper directly over the open flame of a gas burner, under the broiler or on a hot, glowing charcoal grill. Let the skin of the pepper blacken and blister, using tongs to turn the pepper frequently. When completely blackened, after 5 to 8 minutes, transfer to a plate to cool.
- Using a paring knife, cut pepper in half lengthwise. Cut away seeds and stem and discard. Scrape away the skin and discard. Do not rinse. It's OK if a few bits of charred skin remain.
- Cut pepper halves into long strips about 1-inch wide. Season lightly with salt. (The pepper can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead of serving.)
- Marinate the goat cheese: Slice the goat cheese log into 10 pieces (each about 3/4-inch thick). Place pieces in a single layer on a plate and pour 1/4 cup oil over.
- Strip leaves from a few thyme sprigs and a rosemary sprig, roughly chop and sprinkle over the cheese. Finish with a bit of freshly ground black pepper, and a small pinch of red-pepper flakes. Cover and set aside. (This can also be done up to 24 hours ahead.)
- Set oven to 350 degrees. Cut the baguette on a diagonal into 10 slices, each about 1/4-inch thick. (If using ciabatta, cut into similar-size pieces.) Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer, then place in oven for about 5 minutes, until bread is barely toasted.
- Remove from oven and carefully give each toast a light swipe with the garlic clove. Lay a strip of roasted pepper across each toast to cover. Place a goat cheese round in the center of each toast. Spoon the remaining olive oil from the plate generously over each piece of cheese and any exposed toast.
- To finish, return to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the bread is nicely browned and the cheese has gotten a bit of color, 8 to 10 minutes. Let toasts cool a bit, then arrange on a platter and serve. (They taste best at room temperature or just barely warm.) Toasts can be baked up to 1 hour ahead and popped in the oven to reheat slightly.
BAREFOOT CONTESSA'S ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES
I had seen Ina Garten prepare this sandwich on one of her Barefoot Contessa episodes. It looked to die for, and when I finally had time to try it, my suspicions were confirmed. It is so flavorful and just down right yummy. She also prepared a Fresh Pea soup to pair with it, I can't wait to try that, too.

Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Use firm, ripe bell peppers of any color. For a smoky flavor, try roasting poblano or Anaheim peppers. To reduce bitterness, remove the ribs and seeds before roasting.
- Roast the peppers properly: Preheat the oven to a high temperature (450°F or higher) to ensure the peppers blister and char. This will make them easier to peel and give them a smoky flavor.
- Peel the peppers carefully: Once the peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly before peeling. Use a sharp knife to make a slit down the side of each pepper and then carefully peel off the skin.
- Make the goat cheese filling: Combine soft goat cheese with fresh herbs, lemon zest, and honey. Use a spoon or piping bag to stuff the roasted peppers with the goat cheese mixture.
- Bake or grill the stuffed peppers: You can either bake the stuffed peppers in the oven or grill them. If baking, preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the goat cheese is melted and bubbly. If grilling, preheat the grill to medium heat and cook the peppers for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the goat cheese is melted and the peppers are slightly charred.
Conclusion:
Roasted peppers stuffed with goat cheese is a delicious and versatile appetizer or main course. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Experiment with different types of peppers, herbs, and cheeses to create a dish that's perfect for any occasion.
