It’s remarkable that simply grilling peppers transforms them into something so magical, which is showcased in this easy side. This dish also makes a superb topping for sandwiches or burgers, or you can use it as part of an antipasto platter with other grilled veggies, olives, and cheese. Place the bell peppers on the grill skin sides down to let them get blistered and charred, creating a nice contrast to their sweetness, which is enhanced on the grill. Use a mix of colors for the peppers for a pretty presentation as well as flavor variation. These keep in the refrigerator for several days.
