Description

Our family’s holiday dinners always include a giant antipasto, and the showpiece when we were growing up was Mom’s stuffed hot peppers on top of the display. Regardless of how spicy the peppers were, every year we would sneak into the refrigerator and steal one of those thrilling little flavor bombs! There isn’t a holiday that we don’t make them in her honor.

Ingredient:

  • 3 jars (16 ounces each ) pickled hot cherry peppers, drained
  • 1 can (2 ounces) anchovy fillets
  • 1 large tomato, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, finely chopped
  • 1 cup ripe olives, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon capers, drained
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
