Ingredients

• 4 large Sweet bell peppers
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Sour orange juice (or a mix of orange and lime juice)
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 120 grams Goat cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 loaf Crusty bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash the sweet peppers and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 3

Lightly drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the peppers and rub them to ensure an even coat.

Step 4

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

Step 5

While the peppers roast, prepare the vinaigrette. In a small bowl, combine the sour orange juice, honey, Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until emulsified.

Step 6

When the peppers are done roasting, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a plate and let the peppers steam for 10 minutes to make peeling easier.

Step 7

Once cooled, peel off the skins of the peppers and remove the seeds and stems. Slice the peppers into strips and arrange them on a serving platter.

Step 8

Drizzle the sour orange vinaigrette over the roasted peppers, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 9

Crumble the goat cheese over the top of the peppers.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 11

Serve immediately, optionally accompanied by slices of crusty bread.
