Fajita Bell Peppers

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 red sweet bell pepper
  • 1 green sweet pepper
  • 1 yellow sweet bell pepper
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves, smashed
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Recipe

  • 1 if you can not find 3 different colors of peppers, use what you can find, as long as they're sweet peppers.
  • 2 wash and remove the core and seeds from peppers; slice peppers lengthwise into 1/2" wide strips; if you cut them too narrow, they'll go limp before they brown.
  • 3 heat a large heavy bottomed pot for several minutes over high heat; (i use my dutch oven).
  • 4 add oil, swirl to coat bottom of pot.
  • 5 add garlic, then peppers.
  • 6 keep the heat high and stir frequently with a wooden spoon-a spatter-screen is helpful to keep oil contained while it cooks- it should sizzle and snap as it cooks or the heat is too low.
  • 7 you want the peppers' skins to get brown patches;cook until tender-crisp.
  • 8 sprinkle with salt, stir and serve.
