INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🦃 1 pound ground turkey
    • 1 (8 ounce) box rice mix
    • 💧 2 1/2 cups water
    • 1 tablespoon oil or other vegetable oil
    • 4 large green bell peppers, sliced in half lengthwise and seeded
    • 🍅 14 1/2 ounces stewed tomatoes
    • 🧀 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground turkey in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain.

3

Add dirty rice mix, water, and vegetable oil to the skillet; bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, and cook until rice is tender, about 25 minutes.

4

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pepper halves, 4 at a time, and cook until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a colander to drain.

5

Spread stewed tomatoes in a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Place pepper halves on top of tomatoes, cut side up.

6

Stuff each pepper with dirty rice mixture; sprinkle with cheese.

7

Bake in the preheated oven until filling is heated through and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
