THE BEST STUFFED PEPPERS
We've made this classic easier and faster by using the microwave to par-cook the peppers, saving you about 45 minutes of cook time! This is a great recipe to use up leftover rice. Be sure to really pile in the filling (mounding it is ok) as it will shrink as it cooks.

Steps:
- If your peppers don't sit upright on your cutting board, trim about 1/8-inch off the bottoms to even them out so they can stand without falling over. Cut the top off each pepper about 1/2-inch down. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the remaining flesh from the tops. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 12 minutes. Carefully uncover and let them sit until ready to assemble.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the beef in an even layer and cook undisturbed until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, breaking up any clumps with the back of a spoon and scraping up any browned bits from the pan until the meat is lightly browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the browned meat to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add the reserved chopped peppers, onions, garlic, thyme, 4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until falling apart and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until brick red colored, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook until the mixture is reduced, very thick and no smell of alcohol remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Transfer to the bowl with the beef. Stir in the rice until completely combined. (The mixture will be wet.) Season with salt and pepper.
- Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
- Place the peppers cut-side up in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon the filling into the peppers, gently pressing it in with the back of a spoon. Be careful not to overstuff and split the sides of the peppers. Bake for 15 minutes. Then top with the cheese and continue baking until the filling is heated through and the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.
CHEF JOHN'S STUFFED PEPPERS
This recipe's roots can be traced back to the Great Depression, when farmers first began selling the unripe peppers out of necessity. Of course, we did what Americans always do when faced with a new variety of food, we stuffed meat in it.

SPICY STUFFED BELL PEPPERS
If you love the cuisine from the Middle East, you are sure to love these. I have also made these using ground chicken but I think beef tastes best.

SPICY STUFFED PEPPERS
One of my family's favorites. You can use any ground meat, such as turkey or chicken in place of beef, and brown rice instead of white, if you desire. This recipe is better for people who can taste test and adjust spices as they go, to achieve the level of spiciness they desire. I never measure those when I make this dish.

Steps:
- Wash and Cut the stems out of your peppers, cut in half, long ways and de-seed.
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil then, submerge your pepper halves into the pot for 3 minutes. Remove and set aside to drain/cool.
- Start your rice. (2 cups of water to 1 cup dry rice) Cook as you normally would.
- Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.
- While the rice cooks, start on your filling. In a large, somewhat deep skillet, brown your ground beef over medium heat.
- Once your beef is no longer pink, lightly drain and add in your can of tomatoes and green chiles, your can of tomato sauce and your canned corn. Stir it all up.
- In this next part, taste as you go, so that you know how spicy it is and you can adjust accordingly.
- Add in some salt and pepper shakes, about 7 dashes of Worchestershire, 5-6 dashes of cayenne pepper and Tabasco, depending on how spicy you like things -- Stir it all up again.
- Add in 2 cups of the shredded Mexican cheese. Taste your mixture to make sure you don't need to re-adjust your Worchestershire, cayenne and salt and pepper. I usually do -- Your mixture will have some liquid still and that's okay because the rice will soak it up --.
- Add your cooked rice to the mixture and stir it all together, blending well.
- Stuff your pepper halves with the mixture and place In a lightly greased dish, pan, or on a cookie sheet. Use the remaining cheese to sprinkle on top of your peppers.
- Tent some foil over the pan so that the cheese doesn't burn and won't stick to the foil.
- Place your pan in the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for about 15 more minutes until the cheese on top is melted and the peppers are heated through.
- Enjoy!
