2 pounds sweet baby (small) bell peppers (green, red, orange, purple, and/or yellow)*
3 cloves
garlic, minced
1 teaspoon coarse
salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin
olive oil
2 tablespoons good-quality aged

sweet pepper chunks.
In a small bowl,
combine garlic, salt, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and pepper; mix well; pour over
pepper chunks. Reseal bag and shake to distribute sauce.
Preheat barbecue
grill. Remove peppers from sauce. Place peppers, smooth-side down, on hot grill. Cook 6 to
8 minutes (turning occasionally) or until lightly charred on both sides. Remove peppers
from grill; either leave in chunks or slice into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Arrange
chunks or strips on a platter, alternating colors. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
