There are so many things you can make with peppers. You can put them in eggs, stir frys, in salads, and so much more! One of my favorite things to do with peppers is to stuff them.

Chef John's Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients:

• 1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
• 2 cups water

Sauce:

• 1 onion, diced (Redbud Farm)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cups marinara sauce
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Peppers:

• 1 pound lean ground beef (Coleman Girls Farm & Fickle Creek Farm)
• ¼ pound hot Italian pork sausage, casing removed (Coleman Girls Farm & Fickle Creek Farm)
• 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• ¼ cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
• 4 cloves garlic, minced (Redbud Farm)
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pinch ground cayenne pepper
• 1 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus more for topping
• 4 large bell peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded (Redbud Farm & Zephyr Family Farm)

Directions

1. Bring rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Set the cooked rice aside.
2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3. Make sauce: Cook onion and olive oil over medium heat until onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Transfer 1/2 of the cooked onion to a large bowl and set aside.
4. Stir marinara sauce, beef broth, balsamic vinegar, and red pepper flakes into the skillet with cooked onion; cook and stir for 1 minute.
5. Pour sauce mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
6. Combine ground beef, Italian sausage, diced tomatoes, Italian parsley, garlic, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into the bowl with reserved onions; mix well. Stir in cooked rice and Parmigiano Reggiano. Stuff green bell peppers with beef and sausage mixture.
7. Place stuffed green bell pepper halves in the baking dish over tomato sauce; sprinkle with remaining Parmigiano-Reggiano, cover baking dish with aluminum foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
8. Remove aluminum foil and bake until the meat is no longer pink, the bell peppers are tender and the cheese is browned on top, an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
