about 2 cups
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and ground black pepper

Additional Tips
To roast red peppers: Preheat the broiler. Place the peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Broil, turning as needed, until their skin is blackened and blistered on all sides. Remove the peppers from the oven, place them in an airtight container, and cool at least 15 minutes (the heat from the peppers in the airtight container will create steam that helps loosen the skins.) After they're cool enough to touch, slip the skin off the peppers, pull them apart, and remove the seeds and stem from each.
