By Abigail Donnelly

Easy
15 minutes
40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 red peppers
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 3 T Thai pesto
  • 2 T chopped flatleaf parsley
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 2 gem lettuce heads

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Halve red peppers and arrange on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste. Roast for 40 minutes, or until charred and softened.

Transfer to a bowl and cover with clingfilm for 10 minutes to steam slightly.

Peel the skins from the peppers, then coat with Thai pesto, chopped flatleaf parsley and the juice of ½ lemon.

Halve gem lettuce heads and place in a bowl. Top with the peppers and serve immediately.
