Scale this Recipe 1 Pepper

Ingredients

  • 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Olive Oil
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your air-fryer at 400 degrees f.
  • Use a sharp knife (a paring knife works best) and trim the top off of the pepper and cut out the seeds. Once the seeds are out, cut the pepper in half.
  • Use a pastry brush to coat the bell pepper halves in olive oil.
  • Place the pepper halves skin side up onto an air fryer tray or air fryer basket.
  • Air fry the peppers for 12 minutes. Remove them from the air fryer and allow them to cool off. Once they have cooled off you can peel away the skin if you prefer roasted peppers without skin.

Notes

NOTE: This recipe is for roasting one pepper, if you would like to roast more than one pepper use 1/4 teaspoon of oil per pepper. 
Make Roasted Peppers in the oven
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the pepper halves in a single layer skin side down, and place them into a preheated oven at 425 degrees f. Roast for 12 minutes, flip the peppers over and roast for 10 to 12 minutes longer.
