Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bell peppers (assorted colors)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the bell peppers thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove the stems, seeds, and membranes.
Slice each half into 1-inch wide strips.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the bell pepper strips with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and, if desired, garlic powder.
Spread the bell pepper strips in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased to prevent sticking.
Roast the peppers in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking. The peppers should be tender and slightly charred around the edges when done.
Remove the roasted bell peppers from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Transfer the peppers to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve warm as a side dish, or let them cool completely to use as a topping for other dishes.
