Preparation
  1. Begin by washing the bell peppers. Cut them into quarters, removing seeds and stems.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper.

Grilling

  2. Remove the peppers from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Place them skin-side down on the grill.
  3. Grill for about 5-7 minutes per side or until tender and slightly charred.
Serving
  1. Arrange the grilled peppers on a serving platter, and top with torn pieces of burrata cheese.
  2. Drizzle with any leftover marinade (optional) and sprinkle fresh herbs for garnishing.
  3. Gather your family and friends, and dive into a plate of these delicious grilled marinated peppers!

Notes

If you have leftovers, store the grilled peppers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days. For optimal taste and texture, reheat in a skillet over medium heat instead of using a microwave.
