Pepper Medley

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 yellow bell peppers
2 red bell peppers
2 green bell peppers
2 large sweet onions (Peruvian or Vidalia)
Sauterne
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon Accent

Put olive oil in very large skillet on high heat. Add onions and 2-3 tablespoons sauterne; stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add peppers, salt, Accent, and about 1/4 cup sauterne; continue stir-frying until vegetables are crisp-tender. Add sauterne as needed to keep vegetables from burning. (Chicken broth and a tablespoon of lemon juice may be substituted for the sauterne.)
