Found this one in Cuisine at Home magazine. I wanted to be sure and save as I am cleaning out magazines. Prep time does not include roasting peppers. I do this in advance and freeze.

PEPERONATA: SPICY SHRIMP



Peperonata: Spicy Shrimp image

This was made using a few different recipes and with what we had in the refrigerator - it was on a Sunday evening and I felt the need to do something, so we decided to test cook a few recipes. We made a Peperonata- an Italian condiment made of sauteed peppers (all colors) tomatoes, onions and garlic, and we spiced it up with a Scotch Bonnet pepper (cooked whole) & a thinly sliced Poblano. This we served Mexican-Style with warm tortillas with slices of avocado and dollops of sour cream. It was very delicious and we enjoyed it immensely! This would also be fabulous served Italian-Style over polenta à la Lidia Batianich!.
