Notes

  • Slice peppers into thin strips as uniformly as possible. This will ensure that they all cook evenly.
  • Slice the mushrooms slightly thicker than the peppers. They will reduce in size quite a bit as they cook so it’s important to cut them thick enough that they don’t disappear when they’re cooked.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil for super easy clean up!
  • Spread the veggies out evenly in one layer on the pan. This will also ensure that they cook evenly and that they get evenly charred while you broil them.
  • Everyone’s oven cooks differently, so keep a close eye on the veggies when you’re broiling them. My oven takes about 4-5 minutes to get a char on the veggies, but yours may take more or less time. You want to first roast the veggies to get them tender, and then the broil to get them charred and finish cooking them!
