Grilled Bell Peppers with Criolla Sauce

Criolla is traditionally served as a sauce for grilled meats, but we tossed it with bell peppers as an accompaniment or side dish. If you're making this with the Spinach and Carrot Stuffed Flank Steak, grill the bell peppers before you start cooking the steak.

Cook's notes:

·If you aren't able to grill, peppers can be roasted on racks of gas burners over high heat, turning with tongs. Or broil on broiler pan about 5 inches from heat, turning occasionally (about 15 minutes).
·Peppers in criolla sauce can be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before serving.
