This variation of the classic Algerian dish focuses on deep, smoky flavors achieved by thoroughly charring the peppers and tomatoes before simmering them down. It serves as a perfect vibrant dip or side dish, best enjoyed with crusty bread to scoop up the garlic-infused olive oil.
Preheat your oven broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Place the bell peppers, tomatoes, and jalapeño on the baking sheet. Broil for 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are blackened and blistered on all sides.
Remove the vegetables from the oven. Place the peppers and chili in a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap (or place in a sealed bag) for 10 minutes to steam, which makes peeling easier. Set tomatoes aside to cool slightly.
Peel the skin off the peppers and tomatoes. Remove the seeds and stems from the peppers. Roughly chop the flesh of both the peppers and tomatoes into small pieces.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Add the chopped peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Season with salt and black pepper.
Simmer the mixture on low-medium heat for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want the excess liquid to evaporate and the mixture to thicken into a dip-like consistency.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature with bread.
