Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Italian Vegetables

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
4 md Yellow and red bell peppers
2 tablespoon Extra-virgin olive oil
18 Garlic cloves — sliced
1/4 cup Plus 1-1/2 teaspoons
Balsamic vinegar
2 Sprigs fresh thyme OR
1/4 teaspoon Dried
6 ounce Fresh mozzarella cheese
Sliced as thin as possible
1/4 cup Coarsely chopped flat-leaf
Parsley or fresh basil
Freshly ground black pepper

1. Roast the bell peppers directly over a gas flame or under the broiler as
close to the heat as possible, turning, until charred all over, about 5

Enclose the peppers in a paper bag and set aside for 10 minutes to steam. With

browned, about 2 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
3. To assemble, decoratively arrange the pepper strips and mozzarella slices on
6 small plates. Spoon the caramelized garlic dressing over the peppers and
cheese and sprinkle the parsley and black pepper on top. Serve at room
temperature. (The salad can be assembled up to 2 hours before serving.)
