4 servings
- 4 large bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange, or a mix)
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Regular olive oil has a milder taste, so the dish will lose some of the fruity, peppery flavor that extra-virgin adds. This matters most in raw or finishing uses like dressings and drizzles. - 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- ¼ tsp salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn
- 1 tbsp capers, drained (optional)
Can be omittedcapers
Instructions
- 1
Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with foil. Place the whole peppers on the prepared baking sheet and rub them all over with 1 tbsp of the olive oil.

Broil the peppers, turning with tongs every 5–6 minutes, until the skin is deeply charred and blistered on all sides and the peppers have collapsed slightly, 20–25 minutes total.
