Equipment
- large cast iron skillet
Ingredients
- 8 ounces shishito peppers
- Toasted sesame oil for drizzling
- Sea salt
- Sesame seeds for sprinkling
- Tamari for serving
- Peanut Sauce for serving
Instructions
- Heat a large cast iron skillet to high heat. Add the peppers to the dry skillet and cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and blistering, about 6 to 8 minutes. As you work, try to keep the peppers in a single layer so that they make consistent contact with the hot pan.
- Drizzle the peppers with sesame oil, and sprinkle with sea salt and sesame seeds. Serve with tamari and peanut sauce, for dipping.
