Ingredients

• 4 whole Red bell peppers
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 8 leaves Fresh sage leaves
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash the red bell peppers and place them whole on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Roast the peppers in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the skins are charred and blistered.

Step 4

Remove the peppers from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let the peppers steam for 10 minutes to loosen the skins.

Step 5

Meanwhile, peel and thinly slice the onion.

Step 6

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.

Step 7

Peel and mince the garlic cloves, then add them to the skillet with the onions. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 8

Rub the charred skins off the roasted peppers, remove the stems and seeds, and slice the peppers into thin strips.

Step 9

Add the pepper strips to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Stir to combine.

Step 10

Tear or chop the fresh sage leaves into small pieces and add them to the skillet along with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 11

Stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook everything together for 5 more minutes to meld the flavors.

Step 12

Remove from heat and serve warm or at room temperature as a side dish or topping.
