Preparation
Step 1
Toss the Shishito peppers with the oil and salt to lightly coat.
Step 2
Heat an extra-large skillet over medium heat. Add the peppers and let them blister, tossing every 3 minutes or so, until most sides are blistered and blackened and the peppers just begin to soften.
Step 3
Set the peppers aside on a plate and quickly crisp the garlic in the same pan over medium heat, adding a little more oil if necessary, letting them get golden and fragrant. Add the peppers back into the pan to warm. Turn heat off.
Step 4
Drizzle with the sesame oil, soy sauce and give a good toss. Platter, sprinkle generously with the Furikake Seasoning. Serve immediately. They are also fine served at room temp!
