Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Rub red pepper, yellow pepper, and onion slices with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Step 3

Grill on the preheated grill until blackened on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.

Step 4

Put grilled peppers in a paper bag, seal tightly, let stand for 10 minutes. Remove peppers; discard skins, seeds, and stems. Chop peppers and onion slices roughly.
