Ingredients

About 3 tablespoons olive oil, or enough to coat the peppers

2 large ripe tomatoes, chopped coarsely, or 1 16-ounce can of whole tomatoes with juice reserved
2 leaves fresh basil, chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and then shake the pan to coat them with oil.
