Spanish Rice Stuffed Peppers

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spanish Rice Stuffed Peppers.

1. Step 1

   Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, lightly coat an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside.

3. Step 3

   Next, finely chop the reserved tops of the bell peppers, keeping them handy for later.

4. Step 4

   In a large nonstick skillet, heat over medium-high heat and add the chorizo along with the corn.

5. Step 5

   Sauté until the corn turns golden and the chorizo is beautifully browned, which should take about 5 minutes.

6. Step 6

   Then, introduce the ground beef to the skillet, cooking until it’s thoroughly browned, roughly 10 minutes.

7. Step 7

   Stir in 2 cups of water, the Knorr Fiesta Sides Spanish Rice, and the chopped pepper tops.

8. Step 8

   Follow the package instructions for cooking.

9. Step 9

   Once done, mix in 3/4 cup of cheese and let the mixture rest for 2 minutes to meld the flavors.

10. Step 10

    Now, it’s time to stuff those bell peppers! Generously fill each pepper with the savory rice mixture and place them snugly in the prepared baking dish.

11. Step 11

    Pour 2 tablespoons of water into the bottom of the dish and cover it tightly with foil.

12. Step 12

    Bake the stuffed peppers until they reach tender perfection, about 45 minutes.

13. Step 13

    After this time, carefully remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of cheese over the tops of the peppers.

14. Step 14

    Return them to the oven for an additional 2 minutes, or until the cheese is irresistibly melted.

    Enjoy the delightful aroma as your stuffed peppers come to life!.
