Roasted Marinated Sweet Peppers Recipes

ROASTED MINI SWEET PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Cut the mini peppers in half lengthwise. I usually leave the stem as I think it's pretty - but you can cut it off if you wish. The larger mini peppers might have some seeds and membranes - remove those with your fingers or with a paring knife.
• Place the peppers in a large bowl. Toss them with the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and Parmesan.
• Arrange the seasoned mini peppers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake them until tender, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

MARINATED ROASTED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 4 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place bell peppers, skin side-up, on the prepared baking sheet.
• Broil peppers in the preheated oven until skin is blistered and blackened, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove peppers from the oven and immediately transfer to a plastic or paper bag, seal, and set aside for 20 minutes. Peel off blackened skin and cut peppers into 1/2-inch strips.
• Combine olive oil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, basil, and seasoned pepper in a wide-mouth jar and shake until marinade is well blended. Place pepper slices into the jar, shake, and refrigerate until fully cooled and flavors have melded, 3 hours to overnight.

MARINATED ROASTED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Lay peppers on their sides on racks of gas burners and turn flames on moderately high. Roast, turning frequently with tongs, until skins are blackened, 5 to 8 minutes. (Or broil on rack of a broiler pan about 4 inches from heat, turning frequently, 15 to 20 minutes.)
• Transfer to a bowl, then cover, and let steam 10 minutes. Alternatively, place peppers in resealable plastic bags to steam. Peel peppers and discard stems and seeds. Cut lengthwise into 1-inch-wide strips.
• In a bowl, place cleaned peppers. Douse with balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper, to taste.

ROASTED MARINATED SWEET PEPPERS

Steps:

• Prepare a hot fire in a gas or charcoal grill or preheat a grill pan or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Place the peppers on the grill or in the grill pan or skillet, and cook them, turning frequently, until they are charred on all sides and the flesh is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. (Alternatively, you can cook the peppers over the direct flame of a gas stove.)
• Place the peppers in a plastic bag or a large bowl. Close the bag or seal the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set the peppers aside to steam until they are cool enough to handle. Rub off the charred skin, but do not rinse them with water. De-stem and open up the peppers and slide off the core and seeds.
• Rip the peppers into big strips and layer them in a 1-quart (1L) canning jar. Scatter the garlic slices and basil leaves between each layer and pour some marinade made with the olive oil, vinegar, anchovies, capers and salt on each layer.
• Set the peppers aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes, or until you are ready to serve them. Store with the jar lid on, refrigerated for up to several days. Bring the peppers to room temperature before serving.

MARINATED ROASTED RED PEPPERS CANNING RECIPE

Steps:

• Wash your jars, lids, screw bands, and canning tools in hot soapy water. Rinse well to remove all suds. Set aside to air dry on a clean kitchen towel.
• Place the jar rack into water bath canner, place jars in the canner, and add water to cover. Bring the canner to a simmer (180˚F) for 10 minutes, and keep the jars hot until you are ready to fill them.
• Rinse peppers well under clean, running water. Cut each pepper in half, and remove the stems, seeds, and ribs.
• Blister the skins of your peppers by grilling or broiling until the skins crack and separate from the flesh.
• Remove the peppers from the heat and place in a covered glass bowl to steam.
• Once the peppers are cool enough to handle, remove the skins, and tear or cut into pieces or strips. Divide the peeled roasted peppers evenly into piles to match the number of jars.
• Heat about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add the remaining olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, dried oregano, and sugar if using. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to low. Keep warm until you are ready to use.
• Spread a kitchen towel on the counter. Use your jar lifter to remove a jar from canner, drain, and place on the towel. Keep the remaining jars in the canner so they stay hot.
• Fill the jar with roasted peppers, leaving a 1/2-inch headspace. Give your marinating brine a good stir to be sure the oil is evenly distributed. Use your canning funnel and ladle to fill the jar about halfway with the brine.
• Run your bubble popper through the jar to mix the peppers with the brine, and top off with more brine leaving a 1/2-inch headspace. Run the bubble popper through the jars again to remove air bubbles.
• Wipe the rim with a damp towel to remove residue. Center a lid on the jar, place the band over the lid, and screw it on until fingertip tight. Place the jar back into the canner, and repeat with the rest of the jars.
• Once jars are all in canner, adjust the water level so it is 2-inches over the tops of the jars.
• Cover the canner and bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once the water is boiling, process both half-pints and pints for 15 minutes at altitudes of less than 1,000 ft. Adjust processing time for your altitude if necessary (See Notes below).
• When processing time is complete, turn off heat, remove the cover by tilting lid away from you so that steam does not burn your face, and allow the canner to cool down and settle for 5 minutes.
• Spread a kitchen towel on the counter. Use a jar lifter to remove the jars one at a time from the canner. Keep the jars upright, and place them on the towel. Do not tighten ring bands or test the seals yet. Let the jars sit undisturbed for 12 to 24-hours to cool.
• After the jars have cooled for at least 12 hours, check to be sure lids have sealed by pushing on the center of the lid. The lid should not pop up. If the lid flexes up and down, it did not seal. Refrigerate the jar and use within 2 weeks.
• Remove the screw on bands and wash the jars. Label, date, and store the jars of marinated red bell peppers in a cool, dark location between 50 to 70 degrees F for 12 to 18 months.
• For best flavor, let the jars sit for at least 4 weeks before opening to allow the flavors to develop. Refrigerate after opening and use up within 2 weeks. Yields about 8 half-pint or 4 pints.

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.*

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 BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Wash and dry your peppers and place them on their side on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast in upper third of oven until skin is completely charred and the flesh is soft (alternately, you can use the barbecue.) Make sure you turn the peppers allowing all sides to get black and blistered. This can take between 45-60 minutes.
• While the peppers are roasting, combine the ingredients for the marinade.
• Once the peppers are done, transfer to a heatproof bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to cool for about 30 minutes.
• When cool enough to handle, remove stems and charred skins. Cut peppers in half to remove the seeds and then cut in long strips. Do not rinse your peppers under running water.
• Combine with the marinade and toss gently together.
• Allow to sit for a few hours for the flavors to mingle together. Can be served at room temperature.
• Can also be refrigerated for up to a week
