Recipe: Goat Cheese Stuffed Shishito Peppers


From Full Circle

4oz shishito peppers 
1 teaspoon sesame oil
4oz goat cheese, softened
1 teaspoon soy sauce
toasted sesame seeds (optional)
 

Heat the sesame oil in a saute pan over high heat. Saute the shishito peppers for 5 minutes, or until they are beginning to blister. Remove from heat.

Put the shishito peppers on a cutting board. Remove the tops and carefully slice them open on one side. Stuff the peppers with approximately one teaspoon goat cheese each.

Place the peppers in a roasting pan and broil for 2 minutes, or until the peppers begin to turn golden. Remove from heat and put on a plate or bowl. Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame seeds if desired.
