Ingredients
  

Main
  • 4 large Jimmy Nardello peppers
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Equipment

  • Grill or grill pan
  • Sharp knife

  • Cooking brush

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Rinse the Jimmy Nardello peppers under cold water and dry them thoroughly.
  3. Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the pepper halves with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. Place the seasoned peppers skin-side down on the grill.
  6. Let them cook for about 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften and get grill marks.
  7. Carefully flip the peppers over and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
  8. Check for doneness; the peppers should be tender and slightly charred.
