While the peppers are roasting, chop the chorizo into ¼-inch pieces and measure out 1½ cups; then set aside. My omnivore wife, Robin, enjoys this dish with either meat or vegetarian chorizo.

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 2. Cut the peppers in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse them and place on a baking sheet. Put the peppers on the center rack of an oven set to broil.
