Sweet or Mild Peppers with Onions

Ingredients:

• 4 cups fresh Sweet and/or Mild Peppers (about 4 whole large peppers) - thick sliced (Green Bell, Gemini, Poblano, Anaheim, etc)

• 1 large Onion - medium thick sliced

• 2 or 3 cloves Garlic - minced or sliced

• 4 Tbsp Olive Oil or more if you'd like

•  Salt to taste

• Black Pepper to taste

Directions for cooking in pan on stovetop:

1.     In a pan, heat oil. On medium heat, add the sliced peppers in the pan.  Cook for about 15 minutes. 

2.     Then add the sliced onions and garlic.  Cook for about 5 or 10 minutes or until all the vegetables are soft. 

3.     Now add the salt and pepper to taste and serve.  You can refrigerate for later use to add zest to a sandwich or a dish.

Directions for roasting in oven:

1.     Heat oven 400 degrees. In the roasting pan,  add the peppers, onions, and garlic.  Add salt and pepper.  Pour the oil over vegetables and mix well. 

2.     Roast for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are somewhat soft.  Serve or refrigerate for later use to add zest to a sandwich or a dish.

Additional Tips:

• Experiment and cook different types of peppers together and get the color, flavor, and the heat that you like.

• To help save time,  cook a batch of peppers and onions with garlic and olive oil ahead of time and refrigerate them until you are ready to use them. They will keep well for about a week in a container or zip-lock bag. 

• Reheat and use them for omelets, for sausage and green peppers, for quick pepper steak, for topping on burgers, and for topping on grilled fish, steak or chicken.
