This is one of those things you get in a restaurant that you realize is criminally easy to make at home. The hardest part is probably finding the shishitos themselves. Check Asian markets if you can’t get a hold of them at the supermarket (or farmer’s market). All you need is a screaming hot pan (preferably not at the same time as a screaming baby) and a few minutes, then something yum to top them with - in this case Caesar dressing. Mine has Parm, lemon, and fish sauce already in it, so it’s kind of destined to for greatness.
1 pound shishito peppers
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Caesar dressing (use the dressing from my Ceasar with crunchy panko)
Lightly toasted black or white sesame seeds (or a combination of both)
Let’s bring artie to this party.
Meaty filling plus creamy topping equals best dinner ever.
