Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 7-8 long green hot peppers
  • 2-3 cloves garlic chopped
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2-3 tablespoons Anthotiro (Greek fresh cheese or other fresh cheese such as ricotta)
  • 1 teaspoon dry oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven at 350 Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

  2. 2

    Remove stem from peppers and make a long slit lengthwise from top to bottom (I removed the top part of the stem along with seeds on the top part for less heat).

  3. 3

    Add a few drops of olive oil in each pepper (I used an olive oil spritzer), some pepper and salt and a few pieces of garlic.

  4. 4

    Lightly grease the pan and place peppers cut side down.

  5. 5

    Roast for about 20 minutes. Peppers will begin to brown.

  6. 6

    Remove from oven. Place on a plate, drizzle with vinegar and extra virgin olive oil.

  7. 7

    Add dollops of cheese on top, drizzle with a bit more olive oil. Sprinkle with dry oregano and some more ground pepper.

  8. 8

    Serve with whole grain rusks. Anna also recommends accompanying it with sardines.
