STUFFED BELL PEPPERS WITH BEEF AND CABBAGE



Stuffed Bell Peppers with Beef and Cabbage image

I never liked stuffed bell peppers until I ditched the green ones and bought some red, yellow, and orange 3-packs instead. Replacing traditional rice with cabbage adds another veggie and gives a different texture. They take a bit of time but are well worth the effort.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon salted butter
2 pounds lean ground beef
½ medium head green cabbage, chopped
½ medium head red cabbage, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 (14.5 ounce) cans fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 large red bell peppers
2 teaspoons olive oil, or as needed
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup shredded provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil the bottom and sides of two rectangular glass baking dishes.
  • Melt butter in a 4- to 6-quart stockpot over medium heat. Add ground beef, green and red cabbage, onion, celery, and garlic. Stir in diced tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, salt, oregano, basil, and pepper. Cook until beef starts to brown and cabbage softens a bit, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir, and continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • While the beef cooks, prepare bell peppers: remove stems and cut peppers in half from top to bottom. Remove seeds and white membrane. Rub outsides of the peppers with olive oil and arrange, skin-sides down like edible bowls, in the prepared baking dishes.
  • Strain beef mixture to remove excess liquid; scoop into peppers to fill and mound any extra on top or reserve for another use. Cover with foil.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until peppers have softened, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove foil, top with mozzarella and provolone, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Peppers: Select bell peppers that are firm, brightly colored, and have smooth skin. Avoid peppers with blemishes or soft spots.
  • Prepare the Peppers Properly: Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse the peppers thoroughly and pat them dry.
  • Make a Flavorful Filling: Use a combination of ground beef, beans, vegetables, and seasonings to create a flavorful and hearty filling. Cook the filling over medium heat until the beef is browned and the vegetables are tender.
  • Stuff the Peppers Carefully: Spoon the filling into the pepper halves, pressing it down gently to ensure that it is evenly distributed. Do not overfill the peppers, as the filling will expand during baking.
  • Bake the Peppers Properly: Preheat the oven to the desired temperature before baking the peppers. Bake the peppers for the recommended amount of time, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is cooked through.
