    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

    Season the Peppers

    In a large bowl, toss the pepper halves with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar until well coated.

  4. 4

    Roast the Peppers

    Place the peppers cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and charred.

    Cool and Peel

    Remove the peppers from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes. Once cool, peel off the charred skins.
