Cheesey BBQ stuffed peppers
These lovely charred peppers with their rich oozy filling make a delicious vegetarian main or BBQ side dish.
Ingredients
Serves: 2
Ready in: 30 mins
- 2 peppers, red or yellow
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 80g Brie, chopped into pieces
- 12 pitted black olives, halved
- ½ tbsp sundried tomato or green pesto
- Small handful basil
Method
- Cut the peppers in half and scrape out the pith with a spoon, then rub with olive oil. Grill on a hot barbecue, cut-side down, for 10 mins, until charred and starting to soften.
- Turn the peppers over, draining out any liquid. Divide the Brie and olives between the pepper halves. Return to the barbecue and grill, cut-side up, for 5-8 mins until the cheese is melted and the peppers are tender. If you want to brown the cheese, flash it under a preheated grill for a few minutes before serving.
- Divide the pepper halves between 2 plates and drizzle with a little sundried tomato or green pesto and top with basil leaves, to serve.
