Slow-Stewed Peppers And Onions
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
- 2 bell peppers (any color), seeded and thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley or cilantro
- In a large, heavy-bottom pan, warm 2 Tbsp. oil over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring frequently, until very soft and translucent, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Stir in peppers, garlic and bay leaf. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are very soft, about 20 minutes. Add water a tablespoon at a time if mixture seems dry or begins to stick to pan.
- Remove from heat and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Discard bay leaf. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with remaining oil and sprinkle with parsley. Serve alongside grilled fish or chicken, spread on top of a pizza or bruschetta or use to fill an omelet.
