Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Red capsicums
- 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the capsicums thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut each capsicum in half lengthwise, and remove the stem, seeds, and membranes.
Slice the capsicum halves into strips approximately 1 inch wide.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the capsicum strips, olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chopped thyme.
Toss everything together until the capsicum strips are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the capsicum strips in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the capsicums are tender and slightly charred at the edges, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve the oven-roasted capsicum warm as a side dish, or use as an ingredient in salads, sandwiches, or pasta dishes.
