Stuffed Peppers

August 30, 2016 by Jo Barnett

Saw these beautiful red / yellow swirled peppers at the store and just had to find a way to use them so I thought I would stuff them. You can also just use red or orange or yellow peppers to make the recipe.

Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brown rice
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 really huge tomato or 2 to 3 medium ones – quartered
  • 4 large peppers – tops and seeds removed
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons garlic thyme olive oil
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1/2 half large white onion – grated
  • 4 shishito peppers + 4 shito peppers
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet heat the brown rice and vegetable broth with 1/4 teaspoon salt…bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium and cook until the vegetable broth is absorbed by the rice – this takes about 25 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees:
  3. On baking sheet place cut tomatoes and 4 shilot peppers, salt and pepper & coat with the olive oil. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven to cool.
  4. While the rice is cooking in a large bowl combine the ground turkey, grated onion, 4 shito peppers finely chopped, granulated garlic, dried basil and s&p.
  5. When the rice has absorbed all the broth add the ground turkey mixture and cook for 25 to 30 minutes.
  6. Fill the peppers with the turkey mixture. In a blender combine the roasted tomatoes and peppers (include the olive oil for the baking sheet and combine. Add a cup of the turkey mixture and combine – this will give you a nice thick sauce. Pour the sauce over and around the filled peppers in a roasting dish that allows them to stand up. Bake at 350 for 30 to 40 minutes.
