Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main
  • 4 large bell peppers any color you like, for sweetness
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar optional, for tanginess

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Wash and dry the bell peppers, then cut each pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Brush or toss the pepper halves in the seasoning mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
  5. Arrange the seasoned peppers cut side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly for proper air circulation.
  6. Roast the peppers in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred at the edges.
  7. In the last 5 minutes of roasting, drizzle balsamic vinegar over the peppers if using, then return to the oven to finish.
  8. Remove the peppers from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding herbs like thyme or basil to the seasoning mix.
