About this recipe

I only post recipes that I have tried and verified and are good to my taste — all taste may vary.

Par-cooking the peppers means they finish tender at the same time as the filling.

Ingredients

Method

  1. 01

    Heat oven to 375°F. Microwave or blanch peppers 3 minutes to soften slightly.

  2. 02

    Brown beef and onion 8 minutes; add garlic, half the sauce, rice and seasonings.

  3. 03

    Stuff peppers and stand in a baking dish; pour the rest of the sauce around with 1/4 cup water.

  4. 04

    Cover and bake 35 minutes; uncover, top with cheese and bake 15 minutes.
