Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

 Ingredients: 

  • 2 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, skins removed
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 Tbs sliced or slivered almonds, roasted
  • 3 Tbs grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 2 lemons zested and juiced
  • 2 tsp Smoked paprika
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • ¼ cup of Olive oil

· Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1.  Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Rub the peppers with oil and save the remainder of the oil for the pesto. Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until the skins begin to wrinkle, and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with plastic wrap and set aside for 20 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle. Once cooled remove the stem, seeds and skin.
  3. Place the garlic in bowl of food processor and pulse 3 time. Add the Parsley and pulse 3 times.
  4. Add remaining ingredients except oil. Process for 5 seconds and with the food processor running slowly drizzle in the olive oil until a coarse paste forms and adjust for seasoning and taste. (salt, pepper, lemon juice etc.)

This is a simple yet fresh pesto. Easily adjusted to meet your own palette's liking.

Use as a sauce on grilled chicken, steak, pasta or a crostini.

Top with the cheese of your choice (this sauce really likes Feta, Goat or even Blue Cheese if using it on beef.

Have fun and enjoy!
