Ingredients

• 3 large red bell peppers
• 2 whole garlic cloves
• 0.25 cup tahini
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons optional fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

Step 2

Rinse and dry the red bell peppers. Place them whole on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Roast the peppers in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through until the skin is blistered and charred.

Step 4

Remove the peppers from the oven and transfer them to a bowl. Cover with a plate or plastic wrap and let them steam for about 10 minutes to loosen the skin.

Step 5

Meanwhile, peel the garlic cloves and prepare the other ingredients.

Step 6

Once the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel off the charred skin, remove the stems, seeds, and membranes.

Step 7

In a food processor, combine roasted peppers, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 8

Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 10

For a bit of extra flair, stir in finely chopped fresh parsley just before serving.

Step 11

Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve with fresh vegetables, pita chips, or bread of choice.
