Ingredients
4 large red bell peppers
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat barbecue and lightly oil grill. Grill whole peppers, turning often, until blistered on all sides, from 15 to 25 minutes. Place hot peppers in a paper bag. Seal and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Saving juices, peel away skin and discard. Core and seed peppers.
In a food processor, whirl peppers and juice with garlic, basil, salt and pepper until almost smooth. Use right away or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze. This is good on meat and fish.
