This blistered shishito peppers recipe is such a fun appetizer or snack! If you're sensitive to spice, proceed with caution—about 1 in 10 of these usually sweet peppers is spicy.

Ingredients

8 ounces shishito peppers
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Sea salt
Lemon wedges, for squeezing, optional

Instructions

Heat a large cast iron skillet to high heat. Add the peppers to the dry skillet and cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and blistering, about 6 to 8 minutes. As you work, try to keep the peppers in a single layer so that they make consistent contact with the hot pan.
Drizzle the peppers with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, and squeeze with lemon juice, if desired. Find additional serving suggestions in the blog post above.
