Great idea Jogreen, I just cooked this using pork and capsicum and results were great! Also made a little extra mixture that I've vacuum sealed to use as a side dish over the next week. The only change I made to the recipe was to use four fresh cloves of garlic. I cooked on the rack of a BBQ and wrapped a little foil around the bottom of the capsicums to stop too much direct heat, and cooked along with a variety of other vegetables. An added bonus to the foil was while I cooked a few vegetables that don't take much time it could be left on the grill with the cover open to keep warm.
