  4. Roast until peppers are tender and blistered in spots, about 30 to 35 minutes.

No Italian seasoning? Use 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil and ½ teaspoon garlic powder.

Comments

I make these all the time, roasting really brings out the sweet flavor of bell peppers.   I cut them into thinner strips and roast at 425 degrees.  Because the pieces are smaller, they are usually done in about 15 minutes.
