"This one-pan dish was inspired by one lone roasted red bell pepper draped over a buttery crostini that I had at a restaurant recently. It was delicious, simple, and didn’t need anything else—just like this dish. If the pan has an excess of liquid in it at the end, gently tilt and pour (or spoon) it out into a bowl with some cubed butter. Mix it together and spread that schmaltz-y butter on your baguette before layering on a few slices of the softened red pepper."
