Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 2
Wash the green bell peppers thoroughly, then place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 3
Roast the green bell peppers in the oven for 12-15 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are blistered and slightly charred.
Step 4
Remove the roasted peppers from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Once cool, peel off the skins and discard the seeds and stems.

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic cloves and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant (do not let them burn).
Step 6
In a food processor, combine the roasted green peppers, sautéed garlic, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Step 7
Pulse the mixture in the food processor until smooth and creamy.
Step 8
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Step 9
Serve immediately with chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables, or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
