Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the broiler to high. Place the 3 whole bell peppers on a baking sheet and broil 4-5 inches from the heat, turning occasionally with tongs, until the skins are blistered and blackened all over, about 10-12 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Transfer the peppers to a bowl, cover with a plate, and let steam for 5 minutes. This loosens the skins so they slip off easily.

  3. Step 3

    Peel off the blackened skins, then remove the stems and seeds. Slice the peppers into 1/2 inch strips and place them in a serving bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Mince the 2 garlic cloves and add to the peppers along with the 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss well to coat.

  5. Step 5

    Serve warm or at room temperature. Add a pinch of chili flakes or fresh herbs if you like.
