This simple dish transforms roasted red peppers into a versatile, smoky-sweet delight using our Chipotle Infused Olive Oil. It’s the perfect balance of heat and richness, making it ideal as a stand-alone appetizer, sandwich topping, or salad mix-in.

Ingredients

4 large red bell peppers
2 tbsp Chipotle Infused Olive Oil
1 clove garlic, finely minced
Sea salt, to taste
Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
Optional: a splash of balsamic vinegar

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Place peppers whole on the baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, turning occasionally until skin is blistered and charred.
Remove from oven and place peppers in a bowl covered tightly with plastic wrap. Let them steam for 10 minutes—this makes peeling easier.
Peel skins, remove seeds, and slice peppers into thin strips.
In a bowl, toss pepper strips with Chipotle Olive Oil, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper. Add a splash of balsamic vinegar if desired.
Serve warm or chilled—delicious on crostini, in wraps, over pasta, or paired with grilled meats or cheese.
