Ingredients

1 stick (½ cup) Challenge Butter
1 pound shishito peppers
1 lemon (for juice and zest)
¼ cup grated pecorino romano or parmesan cheese

Directions

1

Melt Challenge Butter in a large Good Cook skillet over medium high heat. Toss peppers in butter and cook until peppers begin to blister and turn golden (about 5-7 minutes). Stir every minute or so to keep the butter from burning. Remove from heat, drizzle with lemon juice and toss with zest. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy.
