1 tablespoon avocado oil
kosher salt & ground black pepper

Season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt & ground black pepper as desired, tossing again to coat.
  • Place the bell peppers on the grill. Grill 5-6 minutes, flipping the peppers halfway through, until tender & charred as desired.
  • , with a sprinkling of fresh herbs as desired. If serving on a grilled vegetable platter, drizzle with a light & bright herbaceous sauce, like pesto or chimichurri.
