Blistered Shishito Peppers

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ginger Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, grated ginger, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.

  2. 2

    Blister the Peppers

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shishito peppers and sprinkle with salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the peppers are blistered and slightly charred.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Transfer blistered peppers to a serving plate. Drizzle with romesco sauce, sprinkle with toasted almonds, and serve with ginger aioli on the side.
