Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb shisito pepper
  • 1-2 tbsp sesame oil
  • soy sauce to taste

Instructions

  • Soak some long wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
  • While the skewers are soaking, prepare your indoor or outdoor grill to medium heat.
  • Once the skewers are soaked, thread the shisito peppers onto the skewers. I typically can fit about 15 shisito peppers per skewer. Drizzle the skewers with sesame oil and carefully place them over direct heat on the grill.
  • Grill the peppers for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are blistered and start to char. Flip the skewers and repeat the process for the opposite side.
  • Once the peppers are cooked on both sides, remove them from the grill. The skin should be fairly blistered all around and the peppers skin should be soft.
  • Drizzle them with soy sauce and serve immediately.
