Grilled peppers are a flavorful and nutrient-packed dish often featured in Mediterranean, Latin American, and global cuisines. They are made by cooking fresh bell peppers, poblano, or other varieties over an open flame or grill, enhancing their natural sweetness and creating a smoky char. Rich in vitamins A and C, grilled peppers are excellent for immune support and skin health, and they also contain fiber, promoting digestive wellness. They are naturally low in calories and free of unhealthy fats, making them a great addition to a balanced diet. Often prepared with olive oil and seasonings, they pair wonderfully with meats, grains, or served as a standalone side. While grilled peppers can retain nutrients well, excessive use of oils or added salts during preparation may increase calorie and sodium content, so mindful seasoning is key for keeping the dish light and nutritious.
