Marinated Peppers Recipes

MARINATED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the whole red, green and yellow peppers in the oven directly on the rack. Roast for about 15 minutes, turning if needed, until the skin is well scorched. Immediately place in a bowl covered with plastic wrap or in a paper bag, and allow to cool.
• Remove the skins from the peppers by rubbing with your hands, and rinse under cold water. Cut in half, remove stem and seeds, then cut into strips.
• Place peppers into a medium serving bowl, and stir in the garlic, vinegar, oil, basil, parsley, salt and pepper.

MARINATED MINI SWEET PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium/low (300˚F). Place mini peppers in a large mixing bowl, drizzle with 1/2 Tbsp olive oil and toss to combine. Place peppers on preheated grill and cook 2 min per side (5-6 min total), or just until light grill marks are appear on peppers. Transfer to a bowl.
• For the marinade, mix together 1 cup water, 1¼ cup vinegar, 6 pressed garlic cloves, 6 Tbsp of sugar, & 2 Tbsp of salt. Stir until sugar dissolves.
• Place ½ of the parsley, ½ of the dill on the bottom of a 1/2 gallon jar. Tightly fill with peppers. Pour marinade over peppers and add remaining herbs. Cover and marinate overnight in the refrigerator before serving.*

MARINATED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place peppers on a rimmed baking sheet; rub with 1 tablespoon oil. Roast until peppers are soft and skins have split, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer peppers to a medium bowl. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let peppers steam 20 minutes.
• Peel peppers, slice in half lengthwise, and remove ribs and seeds. Cut into 1-inch-wide strips and return to bowl. Add lemon zest and juice, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and 3 tablespoons oil and toss.

MARINATED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Put the peppers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Roast until the skins are charred in spots and the peppers are tender, 20 to 30 minutes (the Italian peppers may be done before the bell peppers). Remove the peppers to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let the peppers steam so the skins loosen, at least 20 minutes.
• Carefully peel the skins off the peppers, scraping away any stuck bits using a paring knife. Lay the peppers flat on a cutting board and tear them open like a book; remove the stems and scrape away the seeds, then tear the peppers into long strips, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Transfer the strips to a medium bowl.
• Add the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, the vinegar, oregano, basil, garlic and a big pinch of salt to the peppers; toss. Transfer to a small jar and refrigerate at least 3 hours or up to 1 week.

ROASTED AND MARINATED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Brush grill with oil; heat to medium hot. Grill peppers until blackened, 8 to 12 minutes. Let peppers cool in a paper bag. Peel and seed, saving juices. Cut into 1-inch strips.
• In a bowl, combine garlic, vinegar, thyme, salt, pepper, and any pepper juices. Gradually whisk in oil. Toss peppers with vinaigrette, and arrange on a platter to serve.

MARINATED ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Set a cast iron grill pan or griddle over high htat and let it get nice and hot. Put the peppers on their sides on the hot surface.
• Cook, using tongs to rotate and position each one so that all side and the top and bottom get charred, about 20-25 minutes.
• Put the peppers in a medium bowl and cover it tightly with plastic wrap. Let the peppers steam just until they're cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes.
• Remove and discard the plastic wrap. Working over another bowl, cut or pull off pepper stems(which should come away with the cluster of seeds) and discard.
• Tip the opening of the peppers toward the bowl and let any liquid inside pour out. Fish out and discard any seeds in the liquid. Cut the peppers lengthwise in half on a cutting board and trim off all the pale bits inside.
• Cut the peppers lenghthwise in half on a cutting board, and wipe out the seeds. Turn the halves skin side up an;d scrape off the skin with the back of your knife or peel it with your fingers.
• Tear the pepper pieces into irregular strips and add them to the bowl with the pepper juice. Add the garlic and vinegar, then massage the peppers with your hands, stirring and tossing them a bit. Stir it again and with your hands, tossing and rubbing the peppers, until the liquid looks creamy and a little viscous. Tear the basil leaves into big pieces andd stir them inches.
• Eat the peppers right away, when they're still a bit warm, or up to an hour or two later. You can also deep them covered in the fridge for up to 2 days. Let them come to room temperature before serving.

MARINATED ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Peppers: Place pepper directly over a high gas flame; use tongs to rotate pepper until the entire surface is charred, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, roast under the broiler, turning occasionally with tongs to char evenly.) Place charred pepper in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap; the steam trapped in the bowl will enable "carryover cooking." Let rest to loosen skin, 15 minutes.
• Pepper is ready to be peeled when there's condensation under the plastic. Remove plastic wrap and place pepper on a work surface. Use a kitchen towel to gently rub off the charred skin. Tear pepper in half; discard the stem and seeds. Slice into ¼-inch strips, then cut strips into 1-inch segments. Set aside in a bowl.
• In a small saucepan over very low heat, add oil, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, and lemon peel. Heat until warm and aromatic, 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and pour contents over peppers. Stir to make sure peppers are fully submerged, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator, 6-12 hours. Makes 1½ cups. (You can store the peppers in a lidded container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.)

MARINATED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, mix distilled white vinegar, white sugar, vegetable oil and water. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in salt, garlic and anchovy filets.
• Place red bell peppers in a large bowl. Cover with the vinegar mixture. Cover and chill in the refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

ROASTED MARINATED PEPPERS

Steps:

• 1. To blister the peppers, place over an open flame or directly on the coals. Turn to grill on all sides until the skin is completely blackened. Immediately transfer to a large resealable plastic bag or place in a large bowl and cover the top with plastic wrap to seal. Let sit for 30 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
• Working with one pepper at a time, transfer to a work surface. Remove the skin, stem, and seeds. It's OK if some bits of char remain, that will add great flavor.
• Cut the peppers into 2-inch strips and toss with the garlic, shallots, fleur de sel, pepper, and vinegar. Let sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours to allow the flavors to develop.
• 2. Toss with the olive oil and parsley just before serving.
