STUFFED PIQUILLO PEPPERS WITH GREENS, SPANISH
GOAT CHEESE, AND STRAWBERRY SALSA
Piquillo peppers, which hail from the Navarre region of Spain, are a
staple in Spanish cuisine—and for good reason. They're commonly
stuffed or seared and eaten with steak and seafood. One of the great
characteristics of this dish is its versatility: You can enjoy these stuffed
peppers with many different filling and sauce combinations. They can
be served cold, room temperature, or warm, but if you are enjoying
them filled with cheese, warm is always nice!
