Instructions
- Prepare Station
Gather ingredients, a knife, board, brush, bowl, cling film, tongs, and platter; halve and seed the peppers before grilling. · 7 min
What to look for: Peppers are cleanly halved, seeds are removed, and tools are within reach.
- Heat Grill
Heat the grill to 204°C / 400°F until very hot, then brush the cut sides of the pepper halves with 20 ml olive oil. · 5 min
What to look for: The grate is hot and the cut pepper surfaces look lightly glossy.
- Char Peppers
Place peppers cut-side down on the hot grate and grill for 7-10 minutes, until the skins blister, blacken, and soften. · 9 min
What to look for: Skins are blistered with dark charred patches and the peppers slump slightly.
- Steam Peppers
Transfer the charred peppers to a bowl, cover tightly with cling film, and steam for 12 minutes to loosen the blistered skins. · 12 min
What to look for: Condensation forms under the film and the skins look wrinkled.
- Peel Slice
Peel off the blackened skin with your fingers or a small knife, then slice the soft pepper flesh into wide strips. · 5 min
What to look for: Pepper strips are glossy, soft, and mostly free of charred skin.
- Dress Peppers
Dress the warm strips with sliced garlic, balsamic vinegar, remaining olive oil, salt, and black pepper; toss gently to coat. · 3 min
What to look for: The peppers are evenly coated and lightly shining with dressing.
- Serve Warm
Scatter fresh basil over the glossy peppers and serve warm or at room temperature as a simple Polish grilled side dish. · 1 min
What to look for: Basil sits fresh on top and the peppers look silky and colorful.
