Blistered Shishito Peppers with Best Dip

• 总时间: 10 minutes

配料

8 oz shishito peppers

1 Tbsp light olive oil

1/2 tsp flaky sea salt, or to taste

1 tsp lemon zest, optional

1/3 cup mayonnaise

1 garlic clove, pressed

1/2 Tbsp lemon juice

1/4 tsp fine sea salt, or added to taste

1/8 tsp black pepper

步骤

Rinse peppers and dry thoroughly with paper towels. In a mixing bowl, toss the peppers together with the oil.

Heat a large 12” cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Let it heat for about 2 minutes or until the pan is hot and just starting to smoke. Carefully add peppers in a single layer and let them sear until blistered and browned on the first side, about 2-3 minutes.

Turn the peppers over with tongs and let them sear on the second side until blistered, about 2 minutes.

Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle to taste with salt and grate lemon zest over the top. Serve with aioli dipping sauce if desired.
