Char peppers in wood-fired oven (during oven startup time). When blackened, remove from oven, set in a bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. When cooled, peel skins from peppers and remove seeds. Cut peppers into strips about 3 inches wide. Arrange a few capers, a few basil leaves, 1 tablespoon diced tomato, and a slice of Pecorino onto each pepper strip. Roll peppers tightly to hold stuffing and set them, seam side down, onto a sheet pan. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmigiano. Bake in wood-fired oven for 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
