Three-Pepper Stir-fry

Cutting the garlic cloves in half instead of mincing them yields a less aggressive flavor.

Optional red pepper flakes add a little zing to this dish.

The Ingredients:

Serves 8
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, peeled and cut in half
  • 2 red bell peppers, sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 2 yellow bell peppers, sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 2 orange bell peppers, sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 1½ tsp. fennel seeds
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp. red-pepper flakes, optional

Place a wide, heavy-bottomed pan over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic just starts to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add the peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 minutes. Add the fennel seeds, salt and black pepper, and cook, stirring often and scraping up seeds from the bottom, until the peppers are softened but not mushy, about 7 more minutes. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes, if desired, and serve, warning your guests to pick out the garlic cloves.
