This is a Spanish traditional recipe and I had it at a restaraunt in town that serves traditional Spanish tapas. This was a fantastic dish and I just had to find a recipe. I found this online and it looks exactly like what I had. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2 (12 ounce) jars spanish piquillo peppers (make sure you look for origin of spain becuase these are going to be the best) |
5 ounces goat cheese, room temperature |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 garlic clove, finely chopped |
coarse sea salt, to taste |
coarse ground pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Preheat Broiler to High.
2. With you fingers, gently open the stem end of one of the peppers being careful not to poke through the pepper.
3. Carefully stuff about 1/2 teaspon goat cheese inside (it should fill the peppers but not be falling out).
4. Continue until all peppers are filled.
5. Arrange peppers in a single layer in a broiler-proof glass baking dish.
6. Pour 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over them.
7. Sprinkle garlic over the peppers.
8. Broil for 7-10 minutes or until cheese is soft and bubbly.
