Ingredients

3-4 sweet bell peppers

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 450°F. Hold each pepper stem side up and slice all 4 sides off of the pepper. Remove any remaining seeds or ribs and discard.
Place the peppers skin side up on a parchemnt-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes. The peppers are done when they are charred in spots and soft enough to easily piece with a fork.
Remove the peppers from the pan with a spatula and add them to a large glass bowl or container and cover with a plate or cover to trap the steam. Let the peppers steam for 10-20 minutes.
With a paper towel or your fingers gently peel the skin off the pepper flesh and discard.
Use immediately or store them in a sealed glass jar in the fridge for up to 7 days.
