Creamy Garlic Roasted Red Peppers

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Side Dishes
This dish relies on the Maillard reaction to transform the flavor profile of the peppers. By searing them over high heat, we break down the cellular structure and concentrate the natural sugars. The subsequent addition of cream creates an emulsion with the pepper juices, resulting in a sauce that coats the palate rather than sliding off.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Cast Iron Skillet: Essential for high-heat searing. You want to blister the skins, not steam the peppers.
  • Tongs: For turning the peppers safely in the hot pan.

Instructions

1 ✓

Clean peppers and slice into strips. Heat oil in a large skillet over HIGH heat.

Tip: Use a heavy-bottomed pan (cast iron is ideal) to maintain the high temperature needed for blistering without steaming the veg.
2 ✓

Add peppers. Cook without moving them too much for 3-4 minutes to get some char, then stir. Add garlic once peppers are soft.

Tip: Timing is critical: Garlic burns at 375°F (190°C) within seconds. Only add it when you've reduced the heat or the peppers release moisture.
3 ✓

Lower heat, pour in cream, season, and simmer for 2 mins until slightly thickened.

Tip: If the emulsion breaks (oil separates from cream), remove from heat immediately and whisk in a teaspoon of cold water.

Recipe FAQ

Sauce separated?
Heat was too high after adding cream. Whisk in a splash of water to fix the emulsion.
Can I use jarred peppers?
Yes, drain them well. You'll skip the blistering step and just heat them through with the garlic and cream.
Serving?
Great as a side for steak or tossed with pasta.
