Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Red bell peppers
- 2 large Yellow bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F).
Wash the red and yellow bell peppers thoroughly under running water and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and white membranes.
Slice each half into 1-inch wide strips.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peppers with olive oil, salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to ensure the peppers are evenly coated.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the bell pepper slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
Roast the bell peppers for about 25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred around the edges. Flip the peppers halfway through roasting for even cooking.
Once done, remove the peppers from the oven.
Transfer the roasted capsicum to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve warm as a side dish or let cool before using as part of salads or other recipes.
