I made this as a topping for kefta burgers. I also recommend adding a little chopped red onion and feta cheese and serving like a salsa or on crostini. So good!
Grilled Pepper Relish
To roast peppers in the oven instead of grilling them, cut bell peppers in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes. Place pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet; flatten with hand. Broil 15 minutes or until blackened. Place in a zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 15 minutes. Proceed with recipe as directed.
