Guest guest Posted November 15, 2002 Report Share Posted November 15, 2002 Stuffed Peppers 4 small red bell peppers 12 basil leaves 1 small onion, cut into 12 wedges 1 small tomato, cut into 12 wedges 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 1 tablespoon drained capers Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Optional garnishes: 12 pitted olives 12 thin shavings of Romano cheese Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the stems out of the peppers, then cut the peppers lengthwise in thirds. Remove the seeds and pith. Arrange the pepper pieces, skin side down, in a lightly oiled baking dish. Place a basil leaf, an onion wedge, a tomato wedge, a slice of garlic and a few capers in the hollow part of each pepper slice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place one or both of the garnishes on top, drizzle the peppers with olive oil. Roast the peppers until tender and lightly singed at the edges, about 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before serving. Re-season with salt and pepper, if needed, and serve. Makes four servings of three pieces each.
