Roasted Red Peppers

 
I remember the first time I ate a roasted red pepper.  We were at a little Italian restaurant in San Francisco many years ago.  The peppers came on an antipasti platter and were drizzled with a wonderful olive oil.  The flavor was so great that I've been making them ever since.  Serve as a side...plain and simple or dice and add to...whatever.  

2 whole fresh red peppers
salt and pepper
extra virgin olive oil

  1. Roast the peppers and clean.
  2. Drizzle with a good quality olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
  3. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
