Once upon a time (Monday afternoon) I had one lonely red pepper in my fridge. Which I seeded and cut in six pieces.
The only friend it had to keep it company was a bit of leftover red onion.
I felt sorry for them,so I gave them both a bit of a spin with some olive oil and put them on the grill with the chicken..
I left them on just until the pepper pieces were slightly charred and the onions were starting to caramelize.
Like this:
Then I decided to give them some friends!
I finely chopped the onion and mixed in goat cheese, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, fresh ground pepper and fresh lemon juice. Then it looked like this:
Each pepper piece received a generous scoop…
Then, I put them back on the grill for a 10-minute play date at really low heat, just until the cheese mixture was hot and gooey and yummy…
I’d like to say they lived happily ever after, but they quickly disappeared! The last thing they heard was daughter #2 declaring that this was the best thing she’d ever eaten…
A short friendship, a life well eaten!
