Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Yellow bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Wash the yellow bell peppers thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Slice the peppers in half lengthwise. Remove the stems, seeds, and membranes.
Brush the bell pepper halves with olive oil on both sides. Make sure they are well coated to prevent sticking to the grill.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the oiled bell peppers.
Place the bell peppers on the grill, cut side down, and close the lid. Grill for about 6-8 minutes.
Open the grill and turn the bell peppers over. Continue grilling for another 6-8 minutes, until the peppers are tender and have nice grill marks.
Remove the bell peppers from the grill and set them on a serving platter.
If using, drizzle balsamic vinegar over the grilled peppers for a touch of acidity and sprinkle with fresh parsley for added flavor and color.
Serve the grilled yellow bell peppers warm as a delicious side dish or as part of a salad, sandwich, or pasta dish.
