Unfold peppers gently one at a time and lay them skin side down onto the waxed paper, overlapping them.


Arrange prosciutto slices over peppers; place basil leaves over prosciutto.


Evenly crumble goat cheese over the surface of peppers.


Sprinkle evenly with Italian herbs.


Using the waxed paper, from the end closest to you, fold up the roll carefully into a pinwheel until it is closed.


Press gently and evenly to compact the roll as much as possible.
