FETA-STUFFED PEPPERS



Feta-Stuffed Peppers image

These peppers have some heft and give a satisfying main-course feeling. Here, extra-small bell peppers are stuffed with a mild feta cheese and baked with a generous handful of herbaceous bread crumbs. It is a very simple dish, with a surprisingly complex taste, good warm or at room temperature.

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 1-inch-thick slices day-old French bread, crust removed
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, grated
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 teaspoons chopped thyme
1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
1 ounce grated Parmesan
Salt and pepper
6 small sweet peppers, about 1 pound
6 ounces mild feta cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut bread into 1-inch cubes and pulse in food processor in batches to make coarse, soft crumbs. (It should yield about 3 cups.) Toss crumbs with olive oil and spread on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring frequently, until crisp and barely browned, about 15 minutes. Put baked crumbs in a bowl and add garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper and toss well to combine. Set aside.
  • Cut peppers in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Place in a low-sided baking dish in one layer. Season cut side lightly with salt. Fill each pepper half with 1/2 ounce crumbled feta and press in cheese with fingers. With a spoon divide the seasoned crumbs evenly among the pepper halves.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, until crumbs are golden and cheese is softened. Serve warm from the baking dish.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large red or yellow bell peppers (about 1/2 lb each)
1 lb lean (at least 93%) ground turkey
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup Muir Glen™ organic roasted garlic pasta sauce (from 25.5-oz jar)
3/4 cup Progresso™ chick peas, drained, rinsed (from 15-oz can)
1 jar (6 oz) Progresso™ artichoke hearts, marinated, drained, chopped (about 2/3 cup)
3/4 cup reduced-fat shredded mozzarella cheese (3 oz)
1 package (4 oz) feta cheese crumbles (3/4 cup)
2 cups chopped plum (Roma) tomatoes (4 medium)
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425°F. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking parchment paper. Cut each bell pepper in half vertically, leaving stem intact; remove seeds and membranes. In 5- to 6-quart Dutch oven, heat 3 quarts water to boiling. Add bell peppers to boiling water, making sure water covers peppers. Cook 2 minutes; drain. Place peppers cut side up in pan.
  • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook turkey, garlic, Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Cook over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, breaking up turkey, until turkey is no longer pink; drain.
  • Transfer turkey mixture to medium bowl; stir in pasta sauce, chick peas and artichoke hearts. Stir in mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup of the feta cheese.
  • Divide turkey mixture evenly among bell peppers in pan (peppers will be full). Spray one side of foil with cooking spray; cover with foil, sprayed side down. Bake 32 to 37 minutes or until bell peppers are tender and filling is hot.
  • In small bowl, mix tomatoes, basil and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Top cooked bell peppers with tomato mixture and remaining 1/4 cup feta cheese before serving.

Tips:

  • To make sure your peppers are cooked evenly, choose ones that are similar in size.
  • If you don't have any artichoke hearts on hand, you can substitute canned hearts.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese in the filling. A sharp cheddar or a creamy goat cheese would be delicious.
  • If you want a little bit of a kick, you can add a diced jalapeño pepper to the filling.
  • To prevent the peppers from drying out, cover them with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.

These feta and artichoke stuffed peppers are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. They are packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give these stuffed peppers a try!
