Crostini with Peppers and Marinated Anchovies: the perfect recipe for an appetizer or aperitif. Simple and very tasty, the crispy bread contrasts with the soft texture of the peppers and the marinated anchovy gives that tangy touch that makes these crostini special.
An ideal dish in summer, when peppers are in season, but you can easily make it in winter too, as they are available all year round.
I cooked the peppers very quickly in an air fryer; it takes only 20 minutes, but if you prefer, bake them in a preheated oven for 35-40 minutes at 392 Fahrenheit.

How to Prepare Crostini with Peppers and Marinated Anchovies
After washing the peppers, place them whole in the air fryer basket and cook for 25 minutes at 374 Fahrenheit, turning them halfway through.
If you prefer, bake them in a preheated oven for 35-40 minutes at 392 Fahrenheit.
After the time has elapsed, take them out and let them cool a bit, then remove the skin, take off the stem and deseed them. Cut them into slices, season with oil and salt, and set aside.
Once the peppers are out of the fryer, toast the bread slices for 5 minutes at 356 Fahrenheit, then place them on a plate.
On each slice of bread put a few pieces of pepper and a marinated anchovy, finish with a bit of chopped parsley, and serve the crostini.
