What You Will Need

- kosher salt & ground black pepper – simple seasonings that are always a must!
How To Grill Bell Peppers
Ensure grill grates are clean and preheat to 450 degrees F. Remove the stem from each pepper and then cut them in half lengthwise and then in half lengthwise again (so you have 4 pieces).
Best Kind of Bell Pepper to Grill
Honestly that is just a personal preference!! The yellow and orange bell peppers tend to be the sweetest, then the red and green bell peppers really aren’t sweet at all. So I would just pick based off of that! Otherwise they cook the same in my experience!
Place peppers on a plate or baking sheet and drizzle with a little olive oil. Use your hands to massage in the oil all over the bell pepper halves. Season with salt and pepper.
Grill on direct heat (directly over the flame) for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is slightly charred. Remove carefully and serve immediately.
