Categories     Bread     Pepper     Side     Bake

Yield makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 tablespoons Garlic-Infused Oil (see below) or extra-virgin olive oil
3 red or yellow bell peppers
Salt
1/2 cup fine, dry bread crumbs
3 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
3 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon crushed hot red pepper, chopped coarsely
1/2 cup Chicken Stock (page 74) or Vegetable Stock (page 76) or canned reduced-sodium chicken broth or water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F. Drizzle the bottom of a 13 × 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. (If you're using the infused oil, spoon a few of the garlic pieces into the dish as well.) Cut the peppers in half through the stems. Pull out the cores, stems, and seeds and, using a paring knife, cut out the ribs. Arrange the peppers side by side in the prepared dish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over the peppers and season them with salt.
  • Stir the bread crumbs, the remaining 3 tablespoons of the oil, the grated cheese, 2 tablespoons of the parsley, the thyme, and the crushed red pepper together in a small bowl. Divide the crumb mixture among the peppers, making an even coating over the pepper halves. Pour in the stock and cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the peppers are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and continue baking until the crumbs are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a serving platter, stir the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley into the juices in the baking pan, then spoon the juices over the peppers. Serve the peppers hot or at room temperature.

ROASTED PEPPER HALVES WITH BREAD CRUMB TOPPING



Roasted Pepper Halves With Bread Crumb Topping image

This is a fantastic recipe. It's one that my husband really loves. Most men seem to love peppers, don't they? It originally came from the cookbook "Lidia's Italian-American Kitchen" by Lidia Bastianich. I've tweaked it a little for our tastes and made some changes to make it a little bit simpler to do. You can serve them hot or at room temp. for an appetizer or a wonderful, tasty side dish. I use them both ways.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 bell peppers (I use red ones)
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup crushed garlic flavored Club crackers
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons grated romano cheese
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, chopped coarsely
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Drizzle the bottom of a baking dish with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and one clove of the garlic. I use a basting brush to spread everything around evenly.
  • Cut the peppers in half. Pull out the cores, stems and seeds. Arrange the peppers side by side in the prepared dish with the insides facing up. Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the peppers. (I use a sprayer and spray the oil over them).
  • Stir the bread and cracker crumbs, the other 3 cloves of garlic, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, Romano cheese, 2 tablespoons of parsley, the thyme, and the crushed red pepper together in a small bowl. Spoon the crumb mixture over the tops of the peppers.
  • Pour the stock into the bottom of the dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the peppers are tender, about 30-40 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and evenly scatter the grated mozzarella over the peppers. Continue baking until the crumbs are lightly browned and the mozzarella is melted, about 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the peppers to a serving platter, stir the remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley into the juices in the baking pan, then spoon the juices over the peppers. (I always skip this step).
  • Serve hot or room temperature.

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for drizzling
⅔ cup breadcrumbs (fresh, dried, or panko)
4 garlic cloves, finely grated, divided
1½ tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
½ cup coarsely chopped parsley
1 lb. ziti, rigatoni, cavatelli, or other medium tube pasta
1 medium onion, finely chopped
4 whole roasted red peppers from a jar (about one 16-oz. jar), finely chopped
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 (15-oz.) can white beans (such as navy or cannellini), rinsed
2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
¼ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 3 Tbsp. oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high. Add breadcrumbs, half of the garlic, and ½ tsp. salt and cook, stirring constantly to incorporate the garlic, until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in parsley. Wipe out and reserve pot.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, according to package directions. Drain, reserving 2 cups pasta cooking liquid.
  • Heat 3 Tbsp. oil in reserved pot over medium-high. Cook onion, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until slightly softened, 6-8 minutes. Add roasted red peppers, remaining garlic, and 1 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring often, until any liquid is evaporated and vegetables are combined and glossy looking, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are coated and paste is slightly darkened in color, about 5 minutes.
  • Add beans, lemon zest, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes to pot; season with black pepper. Cook, smashing beans and stirring to combine with spoon, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and gradually add reserved pasta cooking liquid (you might not need all of it), stirring and mashing as you go, until combined and sauce is thick. Remove from heat and immediately add pasta; toss to coat.
  • Divide pasta among bowls; drizzle with a little oil and spoon breadcrumbs on top. Squeeze some lemon juice over if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for bell peppers that are firm, brightly colored, and have smooth skin. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the peppers, place them on a baking sheet and broil them for 10-15 minutes, or until the skins are charred. Once the peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly before handling.
  • Make sure the breadcrumb topping is crispy: The breadcrumb topping adds a nice crunchy texture to the dish. To make sure the topping is crispy, use fresh breadcrumbs and toast them in a pan with some butter or olive oil before adding them to the peppers.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the peppers are still warm and the breadcrumb topping is crispy. You can also make the peppers ahead of time and reheat them before serving.

Conclusion:

Roasted pepper halves with breadcrumb topping is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The roasted peppers are sweet and smoky, and the breadcrumb topping adds a nice crunchy texture. This dish is also very versatile and can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious recipe, give roasted pepper halves with breadcrumb topping a try.
