Pepper and Egg Sandwich

A pepper and egg sandwich is a standard Italian lunch. You can get one in any Italian neighborhood deli or luncheonette. Or you can make one yourself. It’s simple, here’s how.

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• Salt and black pepper
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 3 large eggs
• Italian bread

Preheat broiler with the upper rack as high as possible.

Heat the oil in a heavy pan and add the bell pepper, salt, and black pepper. Fry it until the bell pepper starts to brown on its edges.

Beat the eggs in a bowl and add to the pan. Stir it to coat the pepper slices with egg. One bell pepper to three large eggs is a good ratio of ingredients. Once the egg starts to set but the top is still moist, place it under the broiler for 2 o 3 minutes to finish cooking. Serve it on Italian bread.
