Kraft Kitchens Tips

How to Roast Peppers

Arrange whole bell peppers or large chile peppers on foil-covered baking sheet. Place under broiler 2 to 4 inches from heat source. Broil until peppers are blackened on all sides, turning occasionally with tongs. Place in paper bag; close bag. Let stand 20 min. or until peppers are completely cooled. Remove peppers from bag; peel away blackened skin with small sharp knife. Discard skin. Cut peppers lengthwise in half; remove and discard seeds.

Make it Easy

Substitute 1/3 cup finely chopped jarred roasted red peppers for the roasted fresh red pepper.

Substitute

Substitute any firm-fleshed fish, such as halibut or tuna, for the chicken.

They were ok, not very spicy or red-peppery. Kinda lame, but not bad. This recipe deserves 3 stars, max, in my opinion.

The marinade for the skewers was very good but the cooked dish needed more salt. All in all, they were tasty but lacked a bit of flavor that I think some seasoning salt could fix.

These skewers were terrific. I'm going to make them for my daughters birthday party. The wood burned last time so I'm going to try soaking longer. And I may try marinading overnight so that I can do the prep work before the party.

I tried this recipe today for lunch, it is very simple and extremely tasty. I am having friends over on Saturday and I will make the skewers for them.

I liked this recipe. THe kids did too. I let it soak in the sauce for a few hours & then cooked it on the grill. I made rice & veggies to go along with it! It was great!

Fixed 5 skewers and divided the rest of the recipe ingredients in half, with the exception of using one whole red pepper (see note below). I did discard any remaining marinade as the recipe directed. Cooked on a Sunbeam inside grill much like a George's grill for 9-10 minutes. Was delicious! And this is so easy to prepare. (Actually roasted all of the red pepper and served the remainder over the top of the chicken when served.) Don't worry, may be messy on your grill, but cleans up easy when following grill clean up directions. :) TIP: I cut about 2 inches off the skewers so they would fit on my size grill.
