ANDYS TURKEY STUFFED PEPPERS

Submitted by: GUTTERNUTS

a simple mix of two different recipes that made such a delicious stuffed pepper, i had to share it.

35 Minutes to Prepare and Cook



Ingredients

    3 Green bell peppers, halved lengthwise, seeded.
    1 14.5oz can diced tomatoes (italian seasoned)
    1 lb ground turkey 93% lean
    1/3 to 1/2 cup brown rice (uncooked)
    1/3 to 1/2 cup chopped onion
    1.5 tsp worcestershire (lee & perrins)
    1/2 cup shredded colbyjack cheese, div into two 1/4 cups
    1/2 cup water
    1 tsp italian seasonings
    1 tsp garlic powder
    salt and pepper to taste


Directions

makes 5 or 6 - 1/2 shell stuffed peppers. (depending on size of peppers)

preheat oven to 375

for al-dente pepperspreferred), par boil 3 minutes and drain / for el-crunchy skip that step.

In skillet cook onion and turkey until turkey is browned and onion is clear. drain any excess fat

add water, whole can tomatoes (juice too), rice, worcestershire, seasonings. bring to a boil,reduce to simmer and cover 15-20 minutes.

after 15-20 min (rice is cooked), remove cover, and allow any additional liquids to reduce on low heat, stirring occasionaly until all gone. (this really intesifies flavors)

remove from heat, mix in 1/4 cup of cheese

stuff peppers, place in a baking dish, cover with remaining cheese. bake 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and just browned.

serve immediately.

** i tend to spice mine up a bit, with either cajon seasoning, or red pepper/cayenne

I hope you enjoy this as much as my wife and i do.

Very Good 		Great recipe tried them with ground turkey and had to substitute an ingredient or 2 but overall still delicious. Will try ground beef next time I'm not used to the taste of ground turkey. Had enough left over to put in the freezer hard to cook just for one. Thanks for sharing.

Incredible! 		This was Amazing! So flavorfull. I made it for dinner and my friends gobbled it up. The only difference is that I used basmati rice as that was all I had on hand.

Incredible! 		I made this with red bell peppers because they were on sale. I used the wrong kind of rice; it took 45 minutes, so next time I will definitely look at the cooking time before buying the rice. The stuffed peppers were delicious and they were great for work lunches.

Incredible! 		This is delicious! I added a little hot sauce to the mix before cooking and it gave it a little kick. I used white instant rice and had no problem with it being undercooked. I broiled the peppers for about 10 mintues before filling and baking them. Awesome!

Very Good 		One half of the pepper was more than plenty so my husband and I had 3 meals from the recipe, which was fairly inexpensive to make! The store was out of ground turkey so we used extra lean ground beef and adjusted the calories - delicious!

Incredible! 		My husband and daughter loved these as much as I did, much to my surprise! I did have trouble getting the rice to cook, but will try brown rice next time. Other than that, perfect! I think we'll be making these quite frequently from now on...

Very Good 		Very easy. Very delicious. I made it twice now with slight variations. First time I had trouble getting rice to cook (white rice). When I used brown rice, no issue. Really nice to have such a great dish so easy to make. Will cook again many times I'm sure.

Bad 		This recipe needs to specifiy what type of rice is used (instant or regular). My guess is instant as we have been cooking this for over 30 mins now and the rice still isn't cooked.

Reply from GUTTERNUTS (4/10/09)

I've always used a regular long grain brown rice without a problem. (wow 30 minutes and rice wasn't mush?) Maybe instant will work better for you. The rice cont. cooking in the pepper, but should be 80% or more done from the simmering. I hope you try this recipe again it really is delicious.

Incredible! 		I absolutely love this recipe!!!! My husband made it for dinner tonight (Friday) and it was perfect (except for the fact that he undercooked the brown rice and it was a bit crunchy...Can't complain though. I've got a man who cooks. That's good!) I'll be making this again for sure!
