BBQ Grilled Bell Pepper Salsa

Grilled bell pepper salsa is a tantalizingly fresh and smoky dish that perfectly complements any grilled meal. Grilling the peppers intensifies their natural sweetness, while the smoked paprika and lime juice create an excellent balance between spice and freshness. This salsa goes perfectly with grilled meats, vegetarian dishes, or even served with tortillas. To make it even more exciting, try adding a little avocado or feta cheese.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the bell peppers and red onion directly on the grill grates, leaving them whole.

    2

    Grill the bell peppers and onion for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until their skins are blackened and they are slightly softened.

    3

    Once the bell peppers and onion are done, transfer them to a bowl and cover with aluminum foil or a lid for 5 minutes to make peeling easier.

    4

    Remove the skins and seeds from the bell peppers and dice them into small pieces. Finely chop the grilled onion as well.

    5

    In a bowl, combine the grilled bell peppers, onion, minced garlic, fresh cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil.

    6

    Sprinkle with smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes (if using). Mix well to combine.

    7

    Let the salsa sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with fresh tortilla chips, grilled meats, or vegetarian dishes.
