Best Roasted Red Peppers With Anchovies Recipes

Roasted Peppers With Capers, Olives and Anchovy image

Provided by David Tanis

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 red bell or other large sweet peppers, such as Corno di Toro
Kosher salt and black pepper
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 small garlic clove, grated
Extra-virgin olive oil
12 anchovy fillets, rinsed and blotted
1 teaspoon capers
12 black olives
Basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

Roast the peppers: Place each pepper directly on the flames of a stovetop burner or under the broiler as close to the flames as possible. (Alternatively, place the pepper on a hot charcoal or gas grill.) Turning frequently with tongs, allow the skin to blacken and blister all over; About 10 minutes should suffice. Remove from flames, and leave to rest on a plate until cool enough to handle. Ideally, you should cook all the peppers at once rather than one at a time.
Cut the roasted pepper in half lengthwise. Using a small knife, scrape away and discard seeds. Turn over and scrape away the blackened skin. Wipe with a paper towel, if necessary. Do not rinse - a little char is fine. Leave the pepper halves in one piece or cut into strips 3/4-inch wide. Place in a small bowl, toss with salt and pepper, red-pepper flakes, garlic and a little olive oil. Leave to marinate at least 10 minutes.
Lay pepper halves or strips flat on a plate and add 3 or 4 anchovy fillets per serving. Garnish with a few capers and olives. Sprinkle with a little more salt and olive oil, and scatter basil leaves over the top.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 small red bell peppers
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 anchovy fillets packed in olive oil, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 can (15 ounces) small white beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated (2 tablespoons)
1 cup packed spicy baby greens, such as watercress or arugula

Steps:

Char bell peppers over the flames of a gas burner, turning with tongs until blackened and blistered, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, broil them 2 or 3 inches from heat source.) Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover with a plate, and let stand until cool. Scrape off skins with a paring knife and wipe flesh clean with a paper towel. Keeping stems intact, cut peppers in half lengthwise, then remove and discard seeds. Arrange on a platter and season with salt and pepper.
Whisk together anchovies, garlic, vinegar, oil, and parsley in a medium bowl. Add beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon over peppers and top with Parmesan and greens.

Roasted Red Peppers with Anchovies image

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 red bell peppers
1 garlic clove, very thinly sliced
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 anchovy fillets, quartered
Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

Roast bell peppers directly over the flame of a gas burner, turning with tongs, until blackened all over. (Alternately, roast peppers under the broiler, turning, until skin has charred.) Transfer peppers to a large bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Let steam about 15 minutes. Using paper towels, rub off skins; remove stems, ribs, and seeds. Cut each pepper lengthwise into 8 strips. Transfer to a small nonreactive (glass or ceramic) bowl.
Add garlic and 1 tablespoon oil to peppers; let marinate at least 1 hour (or up to 2 days in the refrigerator, covered tightly).
To serve, arrange peppers on a platter, and top each strip with an anchovy quarter. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes, if desired, and drizzle with remaining teaspoon oil, dividing evenly.
