Ingredients:
Shallot - 1
Olive oil - 1 tbsp.
Parmigiano Reggiano - 1 and 1/3 cup (plus more for sprinkling)
Puff pastry - 2 sheets (thawed from frozen)
Marinated roasted red pepper - 2/3 cup (canned)
Method of Preparation:
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Chop the pepper. Sauté the shallot and pepper in olive oil for about 4 to 5 minutes, then stir in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. Set aside.
  2. Roll 1 sheet of puff pastry to 1/16-inch thickness. Trim the pastry to about a 16x8-inch rectangle and spread the red-pepper mixture over the dough.
  3. Roll the other sheet using the same dimensions and place it over the first sheet. Press the sheet down slightly to seal. Then lightly brush with water and sprinkle with more grated cheese.
  4. Cut the dough into 24 eight-inch-long strips. Twist each strip and transfer to a 2 parchment-lined baking pan. Chill for 20 minutes, then bake for 15.
Chef's Tip:
To make your own roasted marinated peppers, slice them into flat pieces and broil until charred. Let cool, peel and slice. Toss in olive oil, blasmaic, oregano, salt and pepper.
