Roasted Shisito Peppers
Shisito peppers seem to have replaced edamame as a favorite appetizer at trendy Asian restaurants these days. But, you don’t have to eat out to enjoy these delicious sweet and spicy treats. I make these for parties all the time and guests flock to them. The best part is, they could not be easier to throw together in the last minute!

Ingredients
  • 12ounces Shisito pepperswashed (you can find these in stores now in bags, ready to go!)
  • 1/2Cup Teriyaki Saucesuch as Soy Vay or Trader Joe’s Soyaki
Instructions
  1. Preheat the broiler to high.
  2. Line a sheet tray with foil and place the shisito peppers on the tray.
  3. Pour the Teriyaki sauce on top and mix well with the shisitos. Make sure they are spread in one even layer. (You can also mix them in a bowl and then transfer to the sheet, but I don’t like washing etra dishes)
  4. Place the tray with shisitos in the oven, right below the burner.
  5. Cook until the shisitos are getting a bit charred. This should take about 5 minutes, but keep a close eye on them.
  6. When they are slightly charred and cooked, place in a bowl or on a tray and serve with some extra Teriaki for dipping or your favorite asian dipping sauce!
