Ingredients

Instructions
- Ensure grill grates are clean and pre-heat grill to 450 degrees F.
- Clean bell peppers and then cut the top off/remove the stem.
- Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise and then in half lengthwise again, so you have 4 pieces.
- Use a paring knife to cut out the seeds and whites.
- Place sliced peppers on a plate or baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and use your hands to massage in the oil all over the skin of the peppers.
- Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
