Equipment
Steps
- 1
Cut peppers in half, remove seeds and membranes.
- 2
Brush lightly with olive oil.
- 3
Air fry cut-side down at 400°F for 10-12 minutes until skins are charred and blistered.
- 4
Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 10 minutes (steam loosens the skin).
- 5
Peel off charred skin. Slice and toss with olive oil, balsamic, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Tip: The steam-and-peel method gives you silky, smoky peppers without the charred skin bits. Use mixed colors for the prettiest presentation. These keep in olive oil in the fridge for a week and get better each day.
