Ingredients
4 bell peppers
Salt and pepper (to taste for seasoning)
Olive oil spray or olive oil (for drizzling)
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 minced garlic cloves
A pinch of salt and pepper
β cup olive oil
3 slices sourdough bread, torn into pieces
1 tablespoon butter
Β½ teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as thyme, basil, rosemary) plus more for sprinkling
One 8-ounce ball of burrata cheese
Instructions
1-First, wash the 4 bell peppers thoroughly and pat them dry. Remove the stems and seeds, then slice them in half from top to bottom for even grilling.
2-Prepare the vinaigrette by whisking together 2 tablespoons vinegar, 2 minced garlic cloves, a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk in β cup olive oil until itβs all combined.
3-Spray or brush the peppers with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let them marinate in the vinaigrette for a bit to soak up those flavors.
4-Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 500 degrees, and make sure the grates are clean and oiled.
5-Grill the peppers cut side down for 5 to 6 minutes until theyβre slightly charred, then flip and cook for another 5 minutes.
6-For the sourdough crumbs, heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet on medium heat and cook the 3 slices of torn sourdough bread with salt, pepper, and Β½ teaspoon garlic powder until golden and crunchy, about 5 to 6 minutes.
7-Remove the peppers from the grill, place them on a dish, drizzle with more vinaigrette, and let them marinate. Tear the 8-ounce ball of burrata over the top, add the crumbs and extra herbs, then serve right away.
Notes
π₯ Use the smoky flavor from grilling to enhance the peppers’ taste.
π Sourdough crumbs add a delightful crunch and can double as salad croutons.
π§ Substitute burrata with feta or bufala mozzarella for variety.
