Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Wash the bell peppers thoroughly and dry them with a paper towel.
Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise, remove the seeds and stem, and slice them into strips about 1 inch wide.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Add the pepper strips to the bowl and toss until they are well coated with the marinade.
Let the peppers marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Place the marinated bell pepper strips directly on the preheated grill grates.
Grill the peppers for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have char marks.
Remove the peppers from the grill and place them on a serving dish.
Serve the grilled bell peppers warm, or let them cool and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
