1 small onion, minced (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup bulgur

STUFFED BELL PEPPERS, GREEK STYLE



Stuffed Bell Peppers, Greek Style image

When I was very young, my grandparents frequently took us to eat at a cafeteria in North Hollywood, CA. I liked -- no I loved -- only one dish. It was their stuffed bell peppers. Part of what made them unique was their juices and sauce: it was tomato based but very translucent with a slightly sweet and tangy taste. I have yet to recreate the sauce but have developed a substitute which isn't too bad. However, I have in fact finally made the stuffing taste just like I remember it. I hope you enjoy this as much as my family does.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 ¼ cups onion, chopped
1 pound ground lamb
¾ cup white rice
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried mint, crushed
1 cup water
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley to taste
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (14.5 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes
6 green bell pepper, top removed, seeded

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion and ground lamb; cook and stir until the onion is tender, and the meat is no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Stir in the rice, salt, black pepper, and mint; cook 5 minutes longer. Add the water and parsley. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue cooking and stirring until the water has been completely absorbed by the rice, about 15 minutes. Stir the chicken broth and diced tomatoes together in an oven-proof dish that will just fit the peppers. Scoop the lamb mixture into the bell peppers, and place them into the dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the peppers are tender and the tomatoes are bubbly, about 45 minutes.

GREEK-STYLE STUFFED BELL PEPPERS WITH QUINOA



Greek-Style Stuffed Bell Peppers With Quinoa image

This a Greek take on the classic beef stuffed pepper. Lemon, cinnamon, fennel and oregano spice up traditional ground beef and onions, while healthy quinoa adds extra fiber. There seem to be a lot of steps, but this one goes together in about 20 minutes. It works great if you have pre-browned ground beef in your freezer.

  • Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl until well combined. You will only use 2 tablespoons of the seasoning, so you will have some leftover. Store the remainder in an empty spice jar or a mason jar. It will last for up to 1 year. Sprinkle in salads, rice, burgers, over chicken; you can add it to pretty much anything.
  • Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Place the pepper halves into the boiling water and boil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the peppers have softened slightly. Remove the peppers, draining off any excess water. Place them in a large baking dish. You may have to work your peppers in two batches depending on how big your pot is.
  • Once the frozen spinach has been defrosted and is cool to the touch (if you used your microwave to defrost), place the spinach in a clean tea towel, wrap the tea towel around the spinach and squeeze as much moisture out of the spinach as possible. Add the spinach to a medium-sized mixing bowl, using your fingers to break it up.
