Peperoni Rossi Arrostiti
ā¢If your sea salt is very granular and pebblelike, crush it using the flat side of a large heavy knife or the bottom of a heavy skillet.
ā¢If you're unable to grill outdoors, peppers can be broiled on rack of a broiler pan about 2 inches from heat 10 to 20 minutes.
ā¢Peppers can be roasted and cut into strips (but not marinated) 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
Step 2
Lay bell peppers on their sides on lightly oiled grill rack and roast, turning occasionally with tongs, until skins are blackened, 10 to 12 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer to a bowl, then cover and let steam 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers (reserving juices), then cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips.
Step 4
Stir together peppers (with their juices), garlic, oil, vinegar, oregano, sea salt, and pepper and marinate 30 minutes at room temperature.
