– Place the peppers, tomatoes, and garlic clove on a hot griddle. Roast all for about 2-3 minutes per side (except the garlic) until they are well roasted. The garlic will take less time to roast, about 2 minutes, so remove and let the tomatoes and peppers finish roasting.

Once all of these have been roasted, wrap them in aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes. This will allow the remaining heat to finish cooking through the ingredients.
