- Slice the peppers in half lengthways, leaving the stalks attached. Remove the seeds and brush with olive oil. Barbecue skin side down for 3-4 minutes, or until slightly charred, then turn over and barbecue for a further 2 minutes.
- Lightly oil 4 pieces of foil. Place two charred pepper halves, skin side down, in the centre of each piece and put 1 tbsp of pesto in each pepper half. Divide the mozzarella between the peppers and scatter with the tomatoes and pine nuts. Drizzle with a little oil and balsamic vinegar, season and close up the foil into tightly sealed parcels.
- Put the parcels on the barbecue, cover with the lid and leave to cook for 10-15 minutes, until the mozzarella has melted and the tomatoes have softened.
- To serve, open the parcels, scatter with basil leaves and eat immediately.
