Time | 10m | | Cook Time | 1 hour | | Introduction | | This "pepper stew" is very good with grilled or roasted meats. It's also great as a bruschetta topping. | | Ingredients | | 4 to 5 Mixed red and yellow bell_peppers
6 Tablespoons Extra_virgin_olive_oil
1 Small Onion
Salt & Pepper
2 Garlic_cloves , minced
1 (14 oz.) Can Chopped Tomatoes | | Directions | | Step: 1 | Wash and dry all of the peppers. Cut off the tops, and cut in half, removing seeds and membranes and slice into 1 inch strips. Slice the onion into thin slices, and cut these slices into quarters. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pan, and add the onions, garlic and peppers. Cook for about 10 minutes on medium heat, stirring frequently, until both the onions and peppers have softened and taken on some color. Add the tomatoes, and reduce heat to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper and cook for an additional 30 to 40 minutes, adding a little water if the mixture seems to be drying out too much. Place mixture into a platter, and allow to come to room temperature.
Optionally garnish with fresh basil leafs |
