Method
 

Preparation and Roasting
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and slice the red bell peppers in half lengthwise, removing seeds and white pith.
  3. Roast the pepper halves cut side down for 25-30 minutes until skins are blistered and charred.
  4. Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper in a bowl until blended.
  5. Cool and peel the roasted peppers once slightly cool; the charred skins should peel off easily.
  6. Marinate the peeled peppers in a shallow dish and pour the marinade to ensure all pieces are coated.
  7. Refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight to meld the flavors.
