This vibrant dish of roasted peppers with boquerones is a classic example of Spanish tapas, celebrating the natural sweetness of charred peppers against the sharp, vinegary tang of white anchovies. By grilling the peppers until the skins are blackened and then steaming them, the flesh becomes incredibly tender and infused with a deep, smoky aroma. This simple preparation creates a sophisticated starter or side dish that is naturally low in fat and packed with Mediterranean flair.
As a diabetes-friendly option, this recipe relies on high-quality ingredients and fresh produce rather than heavy sauces. The combination of colourful red peppers and savoury boquerones provides a light yet satisfying dish that fits perfectly into a heart-healthy diet. Serve these marinated peppers at room temperature alongside some crusty wholegrain bread to soak up the delicious sherry vinegar dressing.

Ingredients for Roasted Peppers with Boquerones
6 large red peppers (1.4kg total)
1 tablespoon Sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
12 boquerones (white anchovy fillets in vinegar), drained, patted dry, and halved lengthwise
How to make Roasted Peppers with Boquerones
Preheat grill.
Grill peppers on a grill pan about 5 inches from heat, turning occasionally with tongs, until skins are blackened, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap, then let steam 20 minutes.
When peppers are cool enough to handle, peel them, reserving all juices in bowl, and discard stems and seeds. Cut peppers lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Pour pepper juices through a sieve into another bowl, then add vinegar and sugar to juices, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then stir in peppers. Marinate peppers at room temperature, stirring occasionally, at least 2 hours.
Spoon peppers and juices into a shallow bowl and arrange anchovy strips decoratively on top.
