Roasting a jalapeno significantly changes the flavor of it and it’s amazing!  After it’s roasted, you can keep it really spicy with all of the seeds, decrease the heat by removing half of the seeds, or get an even milder spice but still the flavor of the jalapeno by removing all of the seeds.

All you need is a jalapeno pepper, olive oil, and a grill!

Baste the jalapeno with olive oil.

Place on a hot grill on high heat.  Turn occasionally to either achieve grill marks on each side or completely char the outside, depending on your needs.

Use it in a recipe, make this a tasty addition to your fajitas, or make a delicious chimichurri sauce with it.  Mmmmmm….
