Fried bell pepper is a simple yet flavorful dish commonly found in Mediterranean, Latin American, and Asian cuisines. It features vibrant bell peppers sliced and sautéed in a small amount of oil, often with garlic, onions, or spices for added depth of flavor. Bell peppers are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber while being naturally low in calories. When prepared with minimal oil and seasoning, fried bell peppers retain their nutritional benefits and make a healthy addition to meals. However, using excessive oil or added salts can increase calorie and sodium content, so mindful preparation is key. This versatile dish pairs well with grains, proteins, or as a topping, offering a delicious way to incorporate more vegetables into your diet.
