    Step 10:

  • Take 2 onions and slice them about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Halve 2 bell peppers and remove the seeds.
  • Grill the vegetables in the grill pan for about 5 minutes per side, until the peppers start to blister and the onions turn golden. Remove them from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the capers, olives, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil.
  • Cut the peppers into 1/2-inch (1 cm) strips and the onions into pieces of the same width, then add them to the bowl. Toss gently to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
