About Shishito peppers with cheese

Shishito Peppers with Cheese is a delicious appetizer inspired by Japanese cuisine, featuring blistered shishito peppers topped or stuffed with melted cheese. Shishito peppers are mild, slightly sweet, and thin-skinned, with the occasional surprise of a spicy one. This dish combines their smoky char with the creaminess of cheese, typically cheddar, mozzarella, or queso, creating a perfect balance of flavors. Shishito peppers are low in calories and rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants that support immune health and skin. However, the addition of cheese increases the calorie and fat content, making this dish more indulgent. It can be enjoyed as a lighter vegetable-forward option with moderation, depending on the amount and type of cheese used. Ideal for sharing, Shishito Peppers with Cheese adds a flavorful twist to any meal or gathering.
