Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Stuffed Green Peppers.
Step 1
Begin by heating a large skillet or medium stock pot over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef and chopped onion, cooking until the meat is browned and no longer pink.
Step 3
Drain any excess fat to keep your dish light and flavorful.
Step 4
Next, stir in uncooked rice, water, diced tomatoes with their juice, and chopped stewed tomatoes.
Step 5
Season this hearty mixture with salt and pepper to your liking, then cover and let it simmer until the rice is tender, which should take about 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 6
While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Step 7
Prepare the green bell peppers by slicing off their tops and carefully removing the seeds and membranes.
Step 8
If needed, trim a small bit from the bottom of each pepper to ensure they stand upright.
Step 9
Once the rice mixture is ready, gently pack it into each bell pepper, filling them generously.
Step 10
Arrange the stuffed peppers in a casserole dish and cover them with aluminum foil.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for around 20 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and inviting.
Step 12
For an extra burst of flavor, serve your stuffed peppers topped with a rich spaghetti sauce.
Step 13
Enjoy this comforting dish that brings warmth and satisfaction to your table!.
