Ingredients

4-6 bell peppers cut in half, lengthwise, seeds removed
2 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your grill over medium-high heat.
In the meantime, prepare you peppers by cutting in half lengthwise, and removing the seeds. Place in a large bowl, and season with olive oil, salt and pepper.
When the grill is hot, place the peppers on the grill. Leave, with the lid closed, for 4-5 minutes. You want the peppers to be just starting to char, but not become mushy and overcooked. Flip the peppers over, and cook for another 4-5 minutes with the lid closed.
Remove from the grill, and serve immediately.
