Grilled Bell Peppers with Criolla Sauce image

Criolla is traditionally served as a sauce for grilled meats, but we tossed it with bell peppers as an accompaniment or side dish. If you're making this with the [Spinach and Carrot Stuffed Flank Steak](/recipes/recipe_views/views/106568), grill the bell peppers before you start cooking the steak.

2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
