Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the tops off the bell peppers and set them aside. Remove and discard the seeds and membranes, then stand the peppers upright in a 9x13-inch baking dish, trimming a thin sliver from the bottom of any that won't stand flat.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute — watch closely so it doesn't brown.
