This side pairs well with London broil, lamb burgers, or grilled chicken.

Ingredients

  • 4 bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange), halved and seeded

  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano

  • Coarse salt and ground pepper

  • Fresh basil leaves, torn

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place peppers, cut side up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Divide garlic among peppers. Sprinkle with oregano and season with salt and pepper.
