Green shishito peppers have a mild flavor with a slightly spicy note and are served in Asia as a side dish or appetizer. Tossed with brown butter and Parmesan, shishitos are a great accompaniment to simple roast chicken. In this recipe, both the peppers and chicken tenders are grilled in the oven. The whole thing takes literally 20 minutes. A great idea for a quick midweek dinner.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to grill mode, positioning the rack 10 cm from the heating element.
  2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, swirling the pan occasionally, until light brown spots appear and the butter gives off a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Pour the butter into a large heatproof bowl, scraping up any brown specks from the bottom of the pan.

  3. Place the shishito peppers in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Grill the peppers, shaking the pan occasionally, until lightly blistered and just beginning to soften, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with the brown butter. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, salt, and freshly ground black pepper, and toss lightly.
  4. Spray a second rimmed baking sheet with olive oil. Arrange the chicken cutlets in a single layer. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Drizzle the cutlets with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Cook until cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Divide the chicken and peppers among four plates. Sprinkle with shaved Parmesan and serve with lemon wedges.
