Mary Cadogan's clever bbq recipe will impress all of your friends and family and have them coming back for more

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tbsp olive oil
50g pine nuts
140g long grain rice
2 garlic cloves , chopped
350g vegetable stock
1 bunch spring onions sliced thinly
140g cherry tomatoes , halved
150g ball mozzarella , chopped
140g gorgonzola
handful each of parsley and basil , chopped
3 red and 3 yellow peppers
string , for tying

Steps:

  • Make the stuffing: heat the oil in a medium pan with a lid and fry the pine nuts until lightly toasted, then add the rice and fry until the grains are glossy. Stir in the garlic, then add the stock and bring to the boil. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, until the rice is tender.Remove from the heat, cool slightly and stir in the spring onions, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, gorgonzola and fresh herbs. Season well and leave to cool.
  • Stuff the peppers: cut around the stalk from one pepper, remove and set aside. Make one slit down the length of the pepper and open out gently. Remove the seeds and membrane.
  • Spoon some filling into the pepper cavity, taking care not to overfill.
  • Take about a metre length of kitchen string and wrap the centre point several times around the pepper stalk, tying it firmly.
  • Top with the stalk and wrap the ends of the string several times around the pepper to secure the filling. Tie the ends in a knot.Repeat with the other peppers.
  • Barbecue the stuffed peppers over moderate heat for 15-20 minutes, turning gently until the peppers are evenly browned. Don't worry if the string chars and if the peppers split too much - wrap them in a piece of foil and finish cooking in the foil wrappers.

THE BEST STUFFED PEPPERS



The Best Stuffed Peppers image

We've made this classic easier and faster by using the microwave to par-cook the peppers, saving you about 45 minutes of cook time! This is a great recipe to use up leftover rice. Be sure to really pile in the filling (mounding it is ok) as it will shrink as it cooks.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 large red, orange or yellow bell peppers
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground beef
2 medium onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely grated
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 plum tomatoes, cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups cooked rice
2 cups shredded Muenster cheese

Steps:

  • If your peppers don't sit upright on your cutting board, trim about 1/8-inch off the bottoms to even them out so they can stand without falling over. Cut the top off each pepper about 1/2-inch down. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the remaining flesh from the tops. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 12 minutes. Carefully uncover and let them sit until ready to assemble.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the beef in an even layer and cook undisturbed until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, breaking up any clumps with the back of a spoon and scraping up any browned bits from the pan until the meat is lightly browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the browned meat to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add the reserved chopped peppers, onions, garlic, thyme, 4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until falling apart and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until brick red colored, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook until the mixture is reduced, very thick and no smell of alcohol remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Transfer to the bowl with the beef. Stir in the rice until completely combined. (The mixture will be wet.) Season with salt and pepper.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the peppers cut-side up in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon the filling into the peppers, gently pressing it in with the back of a spoon. Be careful not to overstuff and split the sides of the peppers. Bake for 15 minutes. Then top with the cheese and continue baking until the filling is heated through and the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 medium bell peppers, preferably red, halved, seeds and ribs removed (see Cook's Note)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound ground beef
4 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
6 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
One 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, lightly crushed
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups cooked couscous (see Cook's Note)
3/4 cup shredded sharp yellow Cheddar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Arrange the pepper halves cut-side up on a nonstick baking sheet or regular baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the interiors with salt and pepper and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and roast until the peppers are juicy and somewhat softened and tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, add the meat in a thin layer and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the meat browns and is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon to a medium bowl. Stir the onions, garlic, chili powder and cumin into the pot with a sprinkle of salt. Stir to blend, then cook until the flavors meld together, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes and simmer gently over medium heat until the tomatoes fall apart and the chili starts to thicken, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the meat back to the pot along with the beans and apple cider vinegar. Remove from the heat.
  • Fill each pepper about halfway with the couscous. Divide the chili among all the peppers, layering it on top of the couscous. Top with the cheese and return the baking sheet to the oven. Bake until piping hot and the cheese is melted, 20 to 25 minutes.

MOM'S STUFFED BELL PEPPERS



Mom's Stuffed Bell Peppers image

What I love most about these stuffed peppers is that the meat goes in uncooked, so it forms kind of a solid "meatball" in the pepper. I think these are much better than the stuffed peppers where the meat is cooked first and stays "loose". If someone in your family does not like peppers, make some meatballs from the mixture and drop them in the pot along with the stuffed peppers. Enjoy!

SAMMY'S STUFFED BELL PEPPERS



Sammy's Stuffed Bell Peppers image

I watched my mom make these when I was a kid. I loved them then and I love them now, and you will too. Goes great with mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, and a salad. I like to cook them on a medium-high heat, about 350 degrees, so that the peppers cook soft. You can adjust your temperature to lower the cook time. Enjoy.

BARLEY-STUFFED PEPPERS



Barley-Stuffed Peppers image

This is an almost perfect dish for the home cook because it's economical, healthy, and scrumptious! You can whip it up anytime you have leftover cooked barley, brown rice, or quinoa from the night before. You could even reinvigorate a container of rice from last night's Chinese or Indian takeout! For a carnivore's take on this dish, add a cup of browned ground meat in place of 1 cup of the cooked barley or other grain.

Categories     Mushroom     Pepper     Kid-Friendly     Dinner     Mozzarella     Barley     Healthy     HarperCollins     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup uncooked barley, or 2 cups cooked barley or other grain
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups sliced cremini mushrooms
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup small-diced fresh mozzarella
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 yellow bell pepper, halved lengthwise and seeded
1 red bell pepper, halved lengthwise and seeded
1 cup bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Slice the mushrooms, grate the parmesan, dice the mozzarella, chop the parsley, halve and seed the bell peppers.
  • Cook the barley according to the package instructions. Transfer the barley to a bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and make sure the oven rack is positioned in the center.
  • In a large sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and rippling, add half the mushrooms and season with a pinch of salt and a crack of black pepper. Do not touch the pan!
  • After 3 to 4 minutes, use tongs to flip one mushroom. If it's not browned to your liking, give them another minute or two. When they're ready, flip all the mushrooms and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the cooked mushrooms to the bowl with the barley and repeat with the remaining mushrooms.
  • Add the Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses and the parsley to the bowl and stir to combine.
  • Line the pepper halves cut side up on a baking sheet and season each with a pinch of kosher salt.
  • Use a large spoon to divide the barley filling evenly among the pepper halves.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until the filling is hot in the center and the peppers are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the peppers with the bread crumbs and bake for 5 to 10 minutes more, or until the bread crumbs are golden brown.
