6 servings
4 large bell peppers, red, orange or yellow
18-20 black or green olives
2 tbsp (30 ml) capers in salt, vinegar or brine, rinsed
6 tbsp (90 ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp (30 ml) balsamic or wine vinegar
3 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper
18-20 black or green olives
2 tbsp (30 ml) capers in salt, vinegar or brine, rinsed
6 tbsp (90 ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp (30 ml) balsamic or wine vinegar
3 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Broil or grill the peppers, turning occasionally, until they're black and blistered on all sides. Remove them from the heat and put into a paper bag. Leave for 5 minutes before peeling the peppers. Save any juices that have been released from the peppers. Cut the peppers to remove seeds and stems before slicing into strips.
Arrange the peppers in a serving dish. Distribute the olives and rinsed capers around them.
Mix the oil and garlic together in a small bowl, crushing the garlic with a spoon to release as much flavor as possible. Whisk in the vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Fold the dressing into the peppers. Sprinkle with the chopped basil. Allow the salad to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving.
