Time 6h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium yellow onions, either sliced with the grain in 1/2-inch-thick pieces (if using as an accompaniment to meat) or cut into 12 wedges, with the root ends intact to keep the wedges together (if using as a main fajita filling)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 bell peppers (red, yellow and orange), sliced into 3/4-inch strips
3 bell peppers (red, yellow and orange), sliced into 3/4-inch strips
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons lime juice

Steps:

  • Special equipment: a medium slow cooker (4 quarts) Place the onions in the bottom of the slow cooker insert and toss with 1 teaspoon of olive oil to coat. Sprinkle the cumin, smoked and sweet paprika, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of salt on top of the onions and toss to coat the onions evenly. Lay the sliced peppers on top of the onions. Finally, top the peppers with the minced garlic and remaining salt and olive oil, tossing the pepper slices gently to coat.
  • Cover and cook on low heat for 2 to 4 hours (for firmer veggies) or 4 to 6 hours (for softer, soupier veggies), stirring once about an hour before the cooking time is completed. It may also be cooked on high for 1 to 2 hours (firmer) or 2 to 3 hours (softer). Stir in the lime juice just before serving.

Provided by Deb Wolf

Categories     Peppers

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 red sweet bell pepper
1 green sweet pepper
1 yellow sweet bell pepper
2 fresh garlic cloves, smashed
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • If you can not find 3 different colors of peppers, use what you can find, as long as they're sweet peppers.
  • Wash and remove the core and seeds from peppers; slice peppers lengthwise into 1/2" wide strips; if you cut them too narrow, they'll go limp before they brown.
  • Heat a large heavy bottomed pot for several minutes over high heat; (I use my dutch oven).
  • Add oil, swirl to coat bottom of pot.
  • Add garlic, then peppers.
  • Keep the heat high and stir frequently with a wooden spoon-a spatter-screen is helpful to keep oil contained while it cooks- it should sizzle and snap as it cooks or the heat is too low.
  • You want the peppers' skins to get brown patches;cook until tender-crisp.
  • Sprinkle with salt, stir and serve.
