How To Make stuffed peppers italian style
-
Step 1Take 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.
-
Step 2Prepare you rice according to package directions. You can use any kind of rice. I prefer brown.
-
Step 3You can actually use any type of chicken as long as it is cooked and just shred it or cube it. Leftover chicken works great!
-
Step 4Mix all ingredients except peppers, cheese, and sauce.
-
Step 5Fill your pepper halves with this mixture. Pack it in really good!
-
Step 6Place the peppers in an oven safe pan and pour alfredo sauce over and around the peppers. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
-
Step 7If you didn't parboil the peppers bake in a 350 degree oven for about an hour. When the peppers are soft they are done.
