If you've never tried Shishito peppers before, these are a must-have! They're not usually very spicy hot, but occasionally they can be. If they're too spicy, just mix up a quick aioli with mayo and garlic, and it should tame the spiciness. I normally serve as appetizers, but they're also great alongside a grilled steak or pork chop.

Ingredients For blistered shishito peppers (air fryer)

  • 12

How To Make blistered shishito peppers (air fryer)

  • 1
    Preheat air fryer to 400 F.
  • 2
    Toss the peppers with the sesame oil until well coated. You may have to add a tad more oil if the peppers are large/long. Spread the peppers in the air fryer's basket. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until they are soft and blistered. Shake the basket every few minutes so that all sides get blistered.
  • 3
    Pile the hot peppers on a serving plate and serve immediately. These are great as is, and even better when served with a garlic aioli.
