They look like shishito peppers, not hot at all, a little EVO and S&P delicious.
Nice looking cook.

Look more like pepperoncini to me but, I may be mistaken.
Looks like a fine feast to me!

Shishito Peppers
What are shishito peppers? Unlike some other Asian countries, Japan isn’t known for its spicy cuisine. In fact, for all its unique flavor, Japanese food has very little heat at all. And that’s sort of the story of the shishito pepper…except for when it isn’t. Shishitos are bright, flavorful sweet chilies with typically a mild spiciness (50 to 200 Scoville heat units.) But like the Padrón pepper (from which it may likely take its roots), there’s a fiery punch every so often where a shishito breaks the norm and turns up the dial. It makes them a ton of fun to eat, and they have grown immensely popular as a quick-to-cook appetizer or side.
One in ten usually have some heat as you never know what your going to get, the other night I had three hot ones in a row.
Easy to cook and are quite tasty.

they tend to lighten up while cooking - love Shishitos! They're pretty easy to grow, and couple of plants provide a ton of fruit..... The grilling looks amazing - !!
