Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Peppers

    Rinse the shishito peppers under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Peppers

    Add the shishito peppers to the skillet in a single layer. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the peppers are blistered and slightly softened.

  4. 4

    Finish with Yuzu

    Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the yuzu juice over the peppers. Toss gently to coat.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Sprinkle the yuzu salt over the peppers, add sesame seeds if using, and serve warm.
