Best 7 Christmas Sauteed Bell Peppers Recipes

EASY SAUTEED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Thinly slice the peppers. Toss them in bowl with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and the oregano, kosher salt and several grinds of black pepper.
• In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat. Cook the peppers until tender and lightly charred, about 10 to 12 minutes for crisp tender or about 15 minutes for tender, stirring occasionally. Add additional salt to taste (we usually add a few more pinches).

SAUTEED ONIONS AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Cut the onions in half, and then slice them into 1/8-inch-thick half-rounds. (You will have about 10 cups of onions.)
• Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute for 15 to 20 minutes. Add the peppers, garlic, vinegar, tomato puree, pepper flakes, salt and pepper and continue cooking an additional 10 minutes.

BELL PEPPER SAUTE

Steps:

• Remove seeds and ribs from peppers; cut lengthwise into strips and halve crosswise.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are just tender, about 10 minutes.

SAUTéED GARLIC-HERB BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat.
• Add the pepper strips, and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes or until the peppers begin to soften.
• Turn down the heat to low and add the garlic , salt, and pepper. Sauté for 2 more minutes, being careful the garlic doesn't brown as it will turn bitter.
• Turn off the heat and add the vinegar, basil, and parsley. Toss to combine.
• Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Toss again before serving. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve with toasted bread if desired.

GARLIC VEGETABLE SAUTE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet; cook and stir garlic and jalapeno in hot skillet until softened, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini, yellow bell pepper, red bell pepper, and shallot; continue to cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.

SPICY BRAISED PEPPERS AND EGGS

Steps:

• In a large straight-sided skillet, heat oil, cumin, garlic, and chile over medium-high until fragrant, 1 minute. Add peppers and onion; season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in cherry tomatoes and 3/4 cup water; season.
• Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until tomatoes burst and peppers are tender, about 10 minutes. Uncover and simmer until liquid has reduced slightly, 3 to 4 minutes more. Make 4 indentations in mixture with the back of a spoon; crack in eggs. Season with salt and cover; cook until eggs are just set, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; sprinkle with fresh herbs and serve over strained yogurt.

STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and carefully remove core, seeds and ribs using a paring knife. Arrange the peppers, cut-sides up, in a 9-by-13-inch pan or other baking dish in which they fit snugly.
• In a large (12-inch) skillet, heat the olive oil over medium. Add the fennel and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, oregano and red-pepper flakes, and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, for 3 to 5 minutes, until no longer pink.
• Add 1/2 cup wine, increase the heat to medium-high and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan, until the liquid in the pan is reduced by about half.
• Add the tomatoes and their juices, salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the rice, Parmesan and parsley, if using. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Divide the mixture among the peppers. Pour the remaining 1/4 cup wine into the bottom of the dish, wrap tightly with foil and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a paring knife easily pierces the peppers. Remove the foil and spoon any juices that have accumulated in the bottom of the pan onto the peppers. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly onto the peppers and bake another 10 to 15 minutes, until the mozzarella is melted and beginning to brown.
• Allow the peppers to cool for 5 minutes, sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve hot.
