Shishito Peppers
- Serves: 6
- Prep Time: 5 min
- Cook Time: 5 min
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 ounces shishito peppers
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons flaky salt
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 ounces shishito peppers
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons flaky salt
Method
Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Once the oil is glistening, add the peppers in a single layer and cook undisturbed until they begin to blister, about 2 minutes. Using tongs, carefully turn the peppers. Cook for 2-3 more minutes, or until softened and blistered all over.
Transfer the peppers to a plate and sprinkle with the lemon zest and flaky salt. Serve warm.
Note: It is estimated that one in ten shishito peppers carry a little extra heat. We like to think this is the roulette of the snacking world.
