Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large red bell peppers,charred
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 c chopped shallots,or sweet onion
3 clove garlic, minced
1 small chili pepper, seeded and minced
1 c chicken broth
1 tsp italian seasoning

Steps:

  • 1. Char bell peppers over gas flame or roast them in broiler until blackened on all sides. Place the blackened peppers in a paper bag close tightly for about 10 minutes. Peel,seed and coarsely chop bell peppers. Set aside.
  • 2. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallots, garlic and chili pepper; sauté until shallots are tender, oh about 5 minutes. Cool slightly. Pour mixture to a blender, add bell peppers, chicken broth and Italian seasoning. Puree until smooth or leave a little chunky if desired..(I usually take out 1 cup at the chunky stage, if I plan on making my Bell Pepper Bread).
  • 3. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste. This can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm over medium heat before using.
