BEST STUFFED BELL PEPPERS WITH GROUND BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Season with kosher salt and ground pepper to taste and cook for 15-20 minutes. Stir in cooked rice and chopped parsley and cook for another 5 minutes or until the rice is warmed through.
• Meanwhile, cut off the tops of the peppers and spoon out the ribs and seeds, then rinse. Lightly sprinkle the inside of the peppers with kosher salt and place in a microwave safe dish with 1/4 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 5 minutes or until they start to soften.

• Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Peppers should be starting to soften. Remove foil and parchment paper.
