How to Make Roasted Pepper Caper Aioli

  1. Preheat your broiler. Place 1 large red bell pepper directly on the oven rack and broil for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is blackened and charred on all sides.
  2. Transfer the pepper to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let steam for 5 minutes. This will make peeling much easier.
  3. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the charred skin and remove the stem, seeds, and membranes. Finely chop the roasted pepper.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped roasted pepper (about 1/2 cup) with 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons drained capers, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice.
  5. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Start with 1/2 teaspoon of each and adjust according to your preference.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. The flavors will meld beautifully if you let it sit for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  7. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days. The aioli will thicken slightly as it chills.
