The roasted bell peppers are a recipe that smells like summer. There is nothing like your own roasted peppers, and it’s incomparably fresh and sweet, perhaps the best thing you can do with bell peppers, which can also serve as tapas. Here, I have used red peppers, but you can use peppers that are different colors as well, such as green or orange.

Ingredients list you’ll need for Roasted Bell Peppers Recipe
Serves 4
- 4 Organic bell peppers
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 sprigs of parsley (with fresh coriander is not bad either)
- olive oil
Tips:
You can roast any kind of pepper, but red, yellow, and orange are sweeter than green. If you prefer the sharp flavor of green peppers, you’ll love them roasted. Poblano chiles can also be roasted, but the skins are more difficult to remove.
To roast peppers on a grill: prepare a grill, the heat should be medium-high, and the rack must be set about 4 inches from the fire. When the fire is hot, put the peppers directly on the rack, over the heat. Grill, turning as each side darkens, until peppers collapse. This should take about 15 to 20 minutes. Then, continue with step 2: Put peppers in a bowl, so they can finish cooking and the skin will come off easier.

Conservation of roasted peppers
Two to three days in the fridge. Otherwise, freeze (before putting the garlic, parsley and oil) and marinate peppers as needed.
