Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
Ingredients:
6 red peppers (sweet bell peppers)
3 Tbsp. olive oil, plus more for taste and consistency
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. lemon zest (if tolerated)
Directions:
1. Roast and peel the red peppers. Chop the peppers roughly.
2. In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the garlic, salt, and chopped peppers. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers look silky and the flavors have blended, about 10 minutes.
3. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and whirl until very smooth. Add a tablespoon or two of olive oil, if necessary, to achieve a very smooth texture.
4. Add more salt and/or optional lemon zest to taste.
5. Warm, gently, if necessary. Use on freshly cooked pasta, over broiled or grilled chicken, or on baked or grilled fish.
