How To Make stuffed peppers italian style

  • 1
    Take stems out of peppers and cut in half lengthwise, remove seeds. This part is up to you - - If you want to boil the peppers about 10 minutes that will cut the bake time down considerably. However, if I have the time I bake them as follows in my directions.
  • 2
    Prepare you rice according to package directions. You can use any kind of rice. I prefer brown.
  • 3
    You can actually use any type of chicken as long as it is cooked and just shred it or cube it. Leftover chicken works great!
  • 4
    Mix all ingredients except peppers, cheese, and sauce.
  • 5
    Fill your pepper halves with this mixture. Pack it in really good!
  • 6
    Place the peppers in an oven safe pan and pour alfredo sauce over and around the peppers. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
  • 7
    If you didn't parboil the peppers bake in a 350 degree oven for about an hour. When the peppers are soft they are done.
