Chicken and Rice Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
  • 2 large green bell peppers
  • 1/2 pound ground chicken
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
1
Firstly, preheat your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, carefully remove the tops from green peppers and place them in a baking dish. Remove any excess flesh surrounding the stems, setting it aside for later use. Discard the seeds and stems of the peppers.
3
Then, combine ground chicken, cooked rice, diced onion, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt in a bowl. Mix in the set-aside pepper flesh to create a harmonious blend of flavors.
4
After that, transfer the chicken mixture into the prepared green peppers, covering them with a rich tomato sauce.
5
Finally, bake the stuffed peppers in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Top them with a layer of melted mozzarella cheese and continue to bake until the filling is fully cooked through and the cheese has turned golden, requiring an additional 15 minutes of cooking time.
