Description

Chili Pepper Pesto made with chilis, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, garlic and olive oil is what I imagine a hot summer day in August would taste like.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bunch fresh basil leaves
  • 1 cup chili peppers
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry your basil.
  2. Combine basil, chili peppers, garlic and sun-dried tomatoes in a food-processor.
  3. Pulse mixture until you achieve a nice chopped “mulch”.
  4. Add olive oil, salt and pepper, and give it a nice stir.
  5. Put pesto in a glass jar and top with more olive oil.
  6. Store in the fridge.
