Instructions

Preheat the broiler to high and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Halve the bell peppers and remove the stems, seeds and white inner membranes.

Place the red bell peppers cut side down on the prepared baking sheet and broil for 10-15 minutes until well charred. Remove from heat and place the peppers in a bowl. Cover with foil and allow to steam for 10 minutes until cool enough to handle.

Place the roasted red peppers in an air tight container or jar and drizzle the olive oil over the peppers. Add more as needed to submerge completely.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Char All Sides Evenly 🔥
Place peppers directly on a gas flame or under the broiler, rotating every 2-3 minutes until the entire skin is blackened and blistered for maximum smoky flavor and easier peeling.
Steam in Covered Bowl ♨️
Immediately place roasted peppers in a covered bowl for 10 minutes to trap steam, which loosens the skin and makes it peel away effortlessly in one motion.
Reserve the Charred Bits 🖤
Don't rinse away all the blackened skin—leave some charred pieces for authentic smoky depth and visual appeal that commercial versions often lack.
Oil Infusion Strategy 🫒
Layer your roasted peppers with quality olive oil, garlic, and herbs, then let them marinate for 24 hours to develop complex flavors that amplify their natural sweetness.
Freeze for Year-Round Use ❄️
Store roasted peppers in olive oil in airtight containers for up to 3 months—they maintain their texture and flavor better than fresh peppers for quick weeknight meals.
