Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Peppers

    Rinse the Padron 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

    Cook the Peppers

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

  4. 4

    Season

    Sprinkle the sea salt over the cooked peppers and toss to combine.

  5. 5

    Add Holy Basil

    Remove the skillet from heat and add the holy basil leaves. Toss gently to combine and let the residual heat wilt the basil.

  6. 6
