Description

Discover how to make delicious Chicken Stuffed Bell Peppers with this easy recipe. Learn the secrets to a flavorful and satisfying meal!


Ingredients

  • 2 large green bell peppers (500g)
  • 5 pound ground chicken (225g)
  • 1 cup cooked rice (240ml)
  • 25 cup chopped onion (60g)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 5 teaspoon (3 ml) ground black pepper
  • 5 teaspoon (3 ml) salt
  • 1 cup tomato sauce (240ml)
  • 75 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (85g)


Instructions

  1. Collect all the necessary items. Set your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to preheat.
  2. Slice off the tops of the green peppers and arrange them in a roasting dish. Chop any flesh from around the stems and put it aside. Remove and discard the seeds and stems.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, cooked rice, chopped onion, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir in the chopped pepper pieces.
  4. Fill the hollowed peppers with the chicken mixture and pour tomato sauce over them.
  5. Cover the roasting dish with tin foil and place it in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
  6. Take off the foil, sprinkle mozzarella cheese on the peppers, and continue baking until the filling is fully cooked and the cheese turns a golden color, approximately 15 more minutes.

Notes

  • Thoroughly mix ground chicken with cooked rice, onion, garlic, and seasonings for a flavorful filling.
  • Evenly distribute tomato sauce over stuffed peppers before baking.
  • Watch peppers towards the end of baking to prevent cheese from burning; a golden color indicates readiness.
