Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 fresh chives (at least 6 inches long) or green part of green onion, cut into thin strips
2 medium red bell peppers
2 medium green bell peppers
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup butter or margarine
2 teaspoons finely shredded lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

Steps:

  • Place chives in shallow dish. Pour enough boiling water over chives just to cover; let stand 10 seconds so chives become pliable. Drain well; set aside.
  • Cut each pepper into eighteen 3x1/4-inch strips (there may be extra strips; reserve for another use). To form each bundle, place 3 pepper strips side by side on center of chive. Top with 3 more pepper strips (alternate colors if desired). Tie chive around bundle. Repeat with remaining pepper strips and chives.
  • Heat all Lemon-Pepper Butter ingredients until butter is melted, stirring occasionally; set aside.
  • Carefully transfer bundles to 10-inch nonstick skillet; add water. Heat to boiling; boil about 1 minute or until crisp-tender. Remove bundles to small serving plate, using slotted spoon or pancake turner; drizzle with Lemon-Pepper Butter. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pepper bundles turned out soggy. I think I might have overcooked them.

These pepper bundles are a great way to use up leftover rice. I also added some chopped vegetables to the filling for extra flavor.

I'm not a big fan of bell peppers, but these bundles were surprisingly good. The filling was really tasty and the peppers were roasted perfectly.
