Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Look for ripe, firm red bell peppers with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid peppers with bruises or soft spots.
- Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the peppers, place them on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes, or until the peppers are charred and tender.
- Remove the pepper skins: Once the peppers are roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Then, peel off the charred skin. This can be done easily by using a paring knife or your fingers.
- Marinate the peppers: Marinating the peppers in a flavorful mixture of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, basil, and garlic enhances their flavor and makes them even more delicious. To marinate the peppers, combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the roasted peppers. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Serve the peppers: Roasted red peppers can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or main course. They can be enjoyed on their own, or used as a topping for pizzas, salads, or pasta dishes.
