How to Prepare Bell Pepper Smoked ‘Salmon’ [Vegan, Grain-Free]

  1. Remove skin of the bell peppers with a peeler.
  2. Slice the bell pepper into approximate 2-inch wide pieces. Discard the seeds and clean the veins from inside the slices, leaving only the flesh of the peppers.
  3. With the tip of a sharp knife, score the pepper slices in a fine diamond pattern.
  4. Mix all the marinade ingredient in a container with a lid.
  5. Add the pepper slices into the marinade, mix to coat well, and store in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or up to a week.
  6. Heat the avocado oil (or olive oil) in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the peppers for 1 minute on one side. Pour some of the marinade into the skillet, flip the peppers and cook on the other side for another minute.
