Instructions

Preheat oven to 450˚F.
Place bell peppers on a foil or parchment paper lined sheet tray. Cook in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the skin is wrinkled and charred, flipping the peppers over half way through.
Remove from heat and let cool. Once cool to the touch, remove the stem and the charred outer skin. Cut each pepper in half and remove the seeds.
In a food processor, pulse the roasted peppers, onion, garbanzo beans, garlic, paprika, cumin, pepper, lemon juice, tahini and olive oil until completely smooth. Add salt and/or more pepper to taste.
Garnish with fresh parsley and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with some lightly toasted pita bread!
