Blistered Shishitos with Cilantro Dipping Sauce

Ingredients

Pepper Ingredients

  • 6 ounces shishito peppers

  • olive oil spray

Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh cilantro

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 1/2 cup raw cashews

  • 1 medium lime (zest and juice)

  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat a grill to medium-high heat.

  2. Skewer the peppers, spray them with olive oil and place them directly on the grill. Cook on one side for 5 minutes or until charred and blistered. Then flip the skewer, and repeat to cook the other side. Remove them from the grill and set aside.

  4. Serve the peppers on a plate with the dipping sauce on the side.
