Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Red bell peppers
- 3 medium Yellow bell peppers
- 2 medium Green bell peppers
- 1 bottle Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the bell peppers thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Slice each bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and any white membranes inside. Cut the halves into long strips about 1 inch wide.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
Arrange the pepper strips on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out so they are in a single layer.
Lightly spray the peppers with olive oil spray, just enough to lightly coat the surface.
Sprinkle the sea salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and garlic powder evenly over the pepper strips.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through cooking. The peppers should be tender and slightly charred around the edges.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
