Blistered Shishitos with Dipping Sauce
Blistered Shishito Peppers and Dipping Sauce are a summer treat that can be served as a snack or side dish. Stir up the sweet, sour, salty and savory condiment in just a minute.
Ingredients
- 1 garlic clove minced
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 12 ounces shishito peppers
- 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
Instructions
- In medium bowl, whisk garlic, mayonnaise, fish sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, honey and red pepper flakes until smooth.
- Heat vegetable oil in large cast iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add peppers and allow them to cook, undisturbed, for 3 minutes or until they start to blister.
- Stir once and allow to cook, undisturbed, for 2 more minutes or until blistered on all sides.
- Remove peppers from heat and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
Notes
- Just like I found out with my blistered tomatoes, it turns out that blistering shishito peppers on the stove can sometimes get a little smoky, too. I recommend opening a kitchen window before you begin blistering the peppers.
- Better yet, if your grill has a side burner on it, cook the blistered shishito peppers outside!
