Blistered Shishito Peppers

These blistered shishito peppers are a lazy persons DREAM! They pack some serious flavor thats salty and a little tangy, with a slightly charred outside that’s completely irresistible. Not only that, they’re done in 15 minutes start to finish! These work as a perfect appetizer, healthy snack or side dish too. Once you see how easy these are to make, I don’t think you’ll ever order them out at a restaurant again!
