These stuffed peppers are a little different (and a little lighter) than most because we used about one-third of each pepper as a primary ingredient in the filling. We sautéed the chopped pepper and combined it with cooked rice, Monterey Jack cheese, garlic, onion, fresh cilantro and a little crumbled chorizo sausage for added spice. Add bell pepper, jalapeno, onions and garlic. Cook until they begin to soften then add rice and cook until all the grains of the rice are coated with oil and the rice begins to take on a little color.
Steps to make Chorizo Stuffed Bell Peppers:
- Bring large pot of water to a boil. Place prepped peppers in boiling water, cook 5 minutes. Remove, set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees farenheit
- In a large skillet, cook chorizo until almost brown, Drain fat if needed. Stir in celery, carrots, onions, and garlic. Cook until soft, about 5minutes. Season with salt and pepper if you like. Stir in tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, basil, rice and water. Cover, and simmer until rice is cooked, 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat, and mix in Monterey Jack, Cheddar and Mozzarella cheeses.
- Place peppers upright in a baking dish,(I used my lasagna pan.) Fill each pepper with the chorizo mixture. Sprinkle extra cheese on top.
- In a small bowl, combine tomato soup with just enough water to make a gravy consistency. Pour over peppers. Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes.
- NOTE: I wasn't sure about this tomato soup thing but I did it. It was good, but next time I will consider using tomato sauce or maybe salsa.
- Enjoy!
