Instructions
Set oven control to broil. On rack in broiler pan, place red bell peppers. Broil with tops about 5 inches from heat for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until skin is blistered and evenly browned. In large bowl, place roasted bell peppers; cover with plastic wrap.
Meanwhile, in 4-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium-low heat.
Add onion and garlic to oil. Cook 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to turn brown; remove from heat.
Remove skin, stems, seeds and membranes from roasted bell peppers; cut bell peppers into strips. Into onion mixture, stir bell pepper strips, broth, water and pepper.
Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 10 minutes, stirring occasionally; stir in 1/2 cup of the basil.
In blender or food processor, place about one-third of the soup mixture. Cover; blend on high speed until smooth, stopping blender to scrape side if necessary.
Pour into large bowl. Repeat 2 times more with remaining soup mixture.
Divide soup evenly among 4 bowls. To serve, top soup with diced yellow bell pepper and the mozzarella; sprinkle with remaining basil.
