Ingredients:
3 large bell peppers
1 cup of cooked rice
1 cup of fresh unseasoned breadcrumbs
1 healthy handful of Italian parsley – chopped
4 cloves of garlic – crushed and chopped
1 bunch of scallions – chopped
½ yellow onion – chopped
¼ cup of grated Romano cheese
½ Jalapeño – chopped (with seeds)
½ cup of boiled deli ham – chopped
Dashes of fresh ground black pepper
Dash of sea salt
1 cup of chicken broth
Olive oil – for drizzling
Cut the tops of the peppers off and save them. Take out the seeds and ribs of the inside of the peppers and set the peppers aside.
Preheat the Oven to 325 degrees:
Heat a large frying pan with a few drizzles of olive oil and add the parsley, garlic, scallions, yellow onion and Jalapeño and sauté until the onion is clear. Add the rice, breadcrumbs, seasonings and the ham and another drizzle of olive oil and continue to sauté for another minute.
Stuff the peppers to the top with the mixture and secure the tops with a toothpick. Place the peppers in a sauce pan and add the broth to the bottom of the pan. Drizzle olive oil over the peppers.
Bake in oven for 45 minutes.
These peppers make a wonderful light meal with a colorful side salad.
Enjoy with Love,
Catherine

I enjoyed stuffed peppers while growing up. Although, I have made them often in my adult years, I can never quite get them just right.
Thanks for reminding me that I need to tackle stuffed peppers again.

Hi Catherine, your peppers are just beautiful. I love the idea of ham instead of the traditional ground beef! This one is definitely a keeper.
Have a fantastic, blessed week 🙂

Your stuffed peppers looks yummy! I love stuffed peppers, which we usually stuffed with ground meat, never tried them with rice before. Would love to try this out one day. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe. Have a nice day!

I love all the added flavors in this - different from traditional stuffed peppers. The jalapenos and some diced ham really add interest - and this is so pretty!
