Blistered Shishito Peppers

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Blister the Peppers

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shishito peppers and cook, turning occasionally, until they are blistered and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Season the Peppers

    Sprinkle the orange gochugaru seasoning over the blistered peppers and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Heirloom Tomatoes

    Dice the heirloom tomatoes and chop the cilantro. Set both aside for garnish.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the blistered shishito peppers and drizzle with orange gastrique. Top with diced heirloom tomatoes and chopped cilantro. Serve with house roasted garlic hummus on the side.
