Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 yellow, orange, or red bell peppers, halved, seeds and ribs removed
6 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for serving
Juice of 1 lemon
1 Tbsp. fig jam
1 Tbsp. white balsamic vinegar or white wine vinegar
Kosher salt
2 Tbsp. oregano leaves

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. Toss peppers with 2 Tbsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet to coat and arrange cut side down. Broil, rotating baking sheet halfway through, until skin is blackened, 12-14 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 200°F and continue to roast peppers until very soft but not mushy, about 1 hour. Let cool slightly, then scrape off and discard skins. Cut peppers lengthwise into 1/2"-wide strips.
  • Whisk lemon juice, jam, vinegar, and 4 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. If fig jam is very coarse, use a fork to mash into smaller pieces; season dressing with salt. Mix in peppers; taste and season well with salt. Toss to coat.
  • Just before serving, mix in oregano and drizzle generously with more oil.
  • Peppers (without oregano) can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; chill.

These were a bit bland for my taste, but I think that's just because I didn't use enough seasoning.

Loved these! I roasted them for about 30 minutes and they were perfect. I used them in a salad with some feta and olives and it was delicious.
