~Balsamic Peppers & Onions~

Go to Recipe Print Recipe

The simplest of ingredients can make the best-tasting condiment or side dish. Here is another easy recipe for cooked balsamic peppers and onions. From hot dogs to steaks to salads this is flavorful enough for any meal. I like to eat it all by itself and since it is quick I can keep a container of it in the refrigerator for a few days snacking on it.

Saute these ingredients together for side dish, condiment, or snack. On a burger (veggie or not) the mix is delicious.

Ingredients

  • ½ Green Bell Pepper Sliced

  • ½ Red Bell Pepper Sliced

  • ½ Yellow Bell Pepper Sliced

  • 1 Large Yellow Onion Sliced

  • ¼ c Balsamic Vinegar

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

  • 2 Garlic Cloves Roasted (Optional-See Recipe)

  • 1 Sprig Fresh Thyme

  • Salt and Pepper To Taste

Directions

  • Slice onion and saute in olive oil for about 10 minutes to release the flavors.
  • Add sliced bell peppers.
  • Add roasted garlic. This is optional. You can add just fresh garlic but adding a roasted garlic clove or two gives the sweetness of it and adds a special flavor.
  • Saute for about 30 minutes covered or until cooked all the way through
  • About 10 minutes before it is done add the balsamic vinegar. Cook it in.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Add fresh thyme

Notes

  • This recipe is for just the two of us at home here.  You can, of course, double it and add what ever flavors suit your fancy. 
  • Get creative on this simple dish.  I particularly like to spoon it over hot dogs.  It makes a great light summer snack, but at room temp or warm off the stove is best for chicken and steak.
  • Enjoy!

You can make this sweet by adding honey or give it some heat by adding hot peppers or spice it up with what you love. I am an in-betweener so I throw in pepper flakes at random with the left overs. As always here on Mrs. Shecky, anything goes with your taste-buds.

Enjoy,

  1. I would love this, but my bride is allergic to ANY hollow pepper, even the plain green ones. 😢 Every now and then, one of us makes a meal of a bell pepper for me and something else for her, but it’s usually just easier for me to forego the delicious tintinnabulum, and stick with the same fare. 😉

    1. Ooh, allergies are something to consider on any foods so it’s good she knows that. But this is easy so maybe one side dish for you in the fridge. BTW, I can’t take really hot peppers either, I end up at the fire station 😉🔥
