Stuffed peppers in the oven
- 3 peppers
- 1 onion
- 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 kg minced meat (beef or pork)
INGREDIENTS
- INGREDIENTS:
- 1 lb ground beef (you can also use turkey or pork)
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup tomato sauce (or crushed tomatoes)
3 peppers
Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
- 3 peppers (the size of a fist)
- 1/2 cup of cubed ground beef or turkey, browned in olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper. This can be substituted with any type of meat that you like!
- 1/4 cup chopped onion (optional)
To prepare your stuffed peppers, cut off the tops of each pepper and remove seeds from inside. Rinse well under running water to wash off any dirt from the outside surface of your peppers before cutting them into cubes! Sprinkle salt onto each piece individually then leave them for 30 minutes so they have time for their flavors to soak up some moisture from being salted–this step helps prevent sogginess later on when baking them in an oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes until tenderized throughly enough but not too soft yet either…so keep checking back while they’re baking! Afterward rinse thoroughly again using cold water if needed until all traces of saltiness has disappeared completely.”
