• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place the whole peppers with the stems, on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tbsp of the olive oil. Roast for about 8 minutes, Let cool.
• Cut peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Place cut side up on a baking sheet.

• In a separate bowl combine eggs, milk and 2 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• In another dish, mix together the breadcrumbs and 4 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• Using gloves, fill each pepper with about a tablespoon of filling depending on the size of the pepper. I find filling all the peppers first before moving on to the next step works best for me.
• Dip each filled pepper into the flour, then into the egg mixture and finally into the breadcrumbs.
• At this point the peppers can be frozen on cookie sheets. Just pop into the oven frozen when you need them.
• Cook at 350°F for 30 minutes on a greased pan. Easy release foil or parchment paper works well too.
