Equipment

  • Cast Iron Skillet
  • Stove top

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb shishito peppers washed and dried
  • drizzle extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 pinches flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Heat the cast-iron skillet on medium-high until water sizzle or the pan just barely smokes
  • Add the dried shishitos in one even layer. Cook for 5 minutes untouched
  • Check the bottom of the pepper to make sure they lift easily from the pan and have a nice blistered look.
  • Remove from the pan. Drizzle with oil and salt.

Notes

If using non-seasoned cast iron or a different pan, add a little high-smoke oil to the pan while searing. This could be avocado oil, coconut oil, or lard.
