Follow by one red pepper.

Next slice a hand full of cherry tomatoes, you can use normal tomatoes but I find the sweetness of cherry tomatoes work well in this dish.

Light a Chimney of Charcoal

This can also be cooked in the oven.

Place a Cast Iron Pan Over the Charcoal Before Add a Splash of Olive Oil.

Add the diced onion, season with salt.

Fry off the onions until they start to become translucent.

Next, add the red peppers. Cook until they begin to soften.

Then add the cherry tomatoes, you only want to cook them for a minutes.

Take the pan off the heat and transfer the onions, pepper, and tomatoes into a mixing bowl.
