Easy Grilled Sweet Peppers

These peppers go very nicely with any grilled meat or fish. Double the batch and save the leftovers to toss in a salad or as a filling in a sandwich.

INGREDIENTS

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ teaspoon minced garlic or dried garlic
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon brine from an olive jar, or ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3 peppers, any colour

PREPARATION

1. In a large, clean plastic bag toss in everything except the peppers.
2. Wash the peppers. Cut the tops off, then remove the seeds.
3. Cut each pepper into 4 pieces.
4. Add the peppers in the plastic bag, close and shake until each piece is well coated.
5. Place peppers skin side down on hot grill, until skin blisters and peppers soften (3-8 minutes depending on the grill).
6. Turn peppers and grill until inner side is done (about 2-4 minutes).
