Roasted Spicy Hungarian Peppers in Garlic and Olive Oil

Ingredients:

* 8 medium/small Hungarian peppers, washed and dried
* 1/2 cup olive oil
* 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice or more to taste
* 8 finely chopped garlic cloves
* Salt and black pepper to taste

Method:

Preheat oven to 450 F

* Leave the stem on peppers, just cut a slit length wise on each pepper, if you wish to make it less spicy, can remove the seeds and vein from each pepper, but comes out better if left alone (Spicy is my preference of course)

* Toss all ingredients in a baking dish

* Bake the peppers at 450 F for 10 min, then broil them for 3-4 min.

* Serve with warm bread of your choice.
