Ingredients

  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 1 orange bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  • Slice the peppers into strips.
  • Heat a skillet over a medium high heat and add the oil.
  • Add the sliced peppers and cook for 5 minutes while stirring until soft.

Notes

  • Use firm peppers that don't have any bruises or soft patches, they should have a uniformed color. Remove all of the seeds before cooking.
  • To spice up your sautéed peppers, try adding some Homemade Taco Seasoning or sauté them with minced garlic or chili pepper flakes.
  • Heat your pan over a medium heat, if the pan is too hot the peppers can burn. Keep stirring while you cook them.
