In Japan, they use shishito peppers as a snack rather than Padrons. Shishito peppers are a hybrid of the Padron pepper from Spain and the jalapeno from Mexico. This recipe offers something of that snacking spirit and it's great to have in-house to use as a topping for ramen.

Padron peppers are a bit of a classic nowadays as their pretty mild in spiciness and have a great flavour. However, did you know that 1 in every 10 or so Padrons is super spicy, kinda like a pepper roulette? We’ve experienced a spicy one a couple of times and boy, they really do pack a punch.

So consider yourself warned…

simple, tasty, impressive

On top of being a delicious little snack, grilled Padron peppers are one of the easiest – and let’s face it, most impressive – snacks you can whip up in virtually no time at all. At Bone Daddies we tend to deep fry our Padrons because we can but here we’re showing you how to get that smokey grilled flavour into them by grilling them in a frying pan. This is definitely the recipe to take into your next home dinner party.

  • Lemon wedges to serve

This is finger food at it’s greatest and we’re not fussy about presentation so pile up those tasty little Padrons high on your plate and get everyone stuck right in. They’re best served straight away and hot, with a generous sprinkle of flakey salt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice right on top.
