Roasted bell peppers have a way of transforming into something almost luxurious — silky, sweet, and deeply savory all at once. The high-heat roasting followed by a quick steam is the real secret here, coaxing the skins off effortlessly and concentrating every bit of natural sweetness in the flesh. Briny capers, a bright apple cider vinegar dressing, and a handful of fresh parsley and basil pull the whole thing together into a salad that tastes far more impressive than the ingredient list suggests. This is the kind of dish that works beautifully as a starter, a side, or even piled onto crusty bread. Everything on the ingredient list is naturally free of tree nuts, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden allergens sneaking in through a sauce or dressing. Serve it at room temperature and let the flavors meld — it only gets better as it sits.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Arrange the bell pepper halves cut-side down on a baking sheet and brush with 1 tbsp of the olive oil.
Roast for 20–25 minutes, until the skins are deeply charred and blistered in spots and the flesh is completely tender when pressed.
