• Heat a grill on medium-high. Place peppers over direct heat and cook until charred.
• Once you have cooked the peppers place them in a bowl and cover them with plastic wrap for about 10 minutes. This will help steam the peppers, so the skin comes off easily.
• Using a knife scrape the skin off the peppers and remove the stem and seeds.
