PEPERONCINI STUFFED WITH SMOKED SALMON
Originally from a 1990 Gourmet Magazine.... the original recipe called for dill, I omit it and it still tastes great. A good low carb appetizer. Instead of a pastry bag I have used a ziploc with a hole cut in the corner to stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture.

Steps:
- Pat salmon dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook salmon, turning once, until just cooked through, about 7 minutes. Transfer salmon to a platter.
- Cook shallot in skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until softened. Stir in peperoncini, half-and-half, parsley, and 1 tablespoon dill and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in remaining tablespoon dill and salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour sauce over salmon and serve with lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Use firm, ripe peppers that are about 2-3 inches long. Avoid peppers that have any blemishes or bruises.
- Prepare the peppers properly: Cut the tops off the peppers and remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse the peppers thoroughly and pat them dry.
- Don't overstuff the peppers: The peppers should be filled, but not so tightly that they burst. If the peppers are too full, the filling will not cook evenly.
- Bake the peppers at a high temperature: This will help to seal in the flavors and prevent the peppers from becoming soggy.
- Serve the peppers immediately: Peperoncini stuffed with smoked salmon are best when served fresh. However, they can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the peppers in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes.
