nice starter for a barbecue menu

Cut off the tops and bottoms of the peppers, remove the seeds, and then cut in half lengthwise to create a long strip. Grill on a preheated grill over direct, high heat (approx. 230-290°C) for approx. 6-8 minutes until blackened. Cover with foil in a bowl and let it steam off for 10 minutes, then peel off as much of the skin as possible. Cut the flesh into strips. Mix the remaining ingredients into a vinaigrette and drizzle it over the pepper strips. Let it marinate. Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts before serving. Serve with freshly baked white bread or baguette.
