Tomato Stuffed Roasted Red Peppers Recipes

STUFFED ROASTED YELLOW PEPPERS OR RED PEPPERS IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Roast the peppers over a flame, under a broiler or on a grill until uniformly charred. Place in a plastic bag or a tightly covered bowl and allow to cool. When cool enough to handle, remove all of the charred skin, rinse briefly and pat dry.
• Carefully cut away the stem from the peppers. Cut a slit down the side of each pepper, from the stem end to the bottom. Gently open out and remove the seeds and membranes; tip out the juice. Try to keep the peppers in one piece. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat in a large, nonstick skillet and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the parsley and quinoa and mix together until the quinoa is coated with oil. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a baking dish large enough to accommodate all of the peppers. One at a time, lay a pepper in the dish and fill with the quinoa mixture. I do this by gently opening up the pepper, mounding the filling onto one half, and folding the other half back over the filling, overlapping the edges slightly. Lay the peppers in the dish. Cover the baking dish with foil or a lid and bake the peppers for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, reheat the tomato sauce.
• Ladle the tomato sauce onto serving plates or a serving platter. Top with the stuffed peppers and serve.

STUFFED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Bring brown rice and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the saucepan, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 40 minutes; transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Break ground beef into small pieces and place in the skillet. Add onion, mushrooms, and garlic; cook and stir until the beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Mix beef mixture into brown rice.
• Stir tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and Italian seasoning into the rice mixture and season filling with salt and black pepper.
• Arrange bell peppers in a baking dish. Spoon filling into bell peppers.
• Bake in preheated oven until the peppers are tender, about 1 hour. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the stuffed peppers to serve.

ROASTED STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil shallow baking pan or cookie sheet with sides with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
• Cut each bell pepper in half; remove membranes and seeds but leave stalk intact. (The stalks are not edible, but they will help the peppers keep their shape while roasting.) Placed pepper halves hollow side up in pan.
• Score an "x" into bottom of each tomato; place in heatproof bowl. Pour boiling water over tomatoes. Let stand 1 minute. Drain tomatoes; use fingers to slide skins from tomatoes. Cut each tomato into quarters. Place tomato quarters evenly into pepper halves.
• Place garlic slices evenly in pepper halves; sprinkle with herbs. Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons oil over pepper halves; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer cooked pepper halves to serving dish. Pour any juices left in pan over peppers. Crumble cheese into each pepper half. Serve with French bread.

TOMATO STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a large, shallow baking dish with cooking spray.
• Cut the peppers in half lengthwise, removing the seeds but leaving the stem. Although the stem is not edible it looks good in this dish and helps the pepper retain its shape. Place the peppers cut side up in the baking dish.
• Divide the sliced garlic and the olives evenly among the peppers. Cut each tomato into 8 wedges and put 4 wedges into each pepper. Drizzle each stuffed pepper with a little oil and season with a few grinds of pepper.
• Roast the peppers for about 50 minutes or until they are tender and beginning to brown around the edges.

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH TOMATOES & ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Put the peppers into a large baking dish, toss with a little of the oil from the anchovy can, then turn cut-side up. Roast for 40 mins, until soft but not collapsed.
• Slice 8 of the anchovies along their length. Put 2 halves of tomato, several garlic slices, a few little rosemary sprigs and two pieces of anchovy into the hollow of each pepper. Drizzle over the olive oil, then roast again for 30 mins until the tomatoes are soft and the peppers are filled with pools of tasty juice. Leave to cool and serve warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND TOMATO STUFFED SHELLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray. Cook and drain pasta shells as directed on package.
• In 2-quart saucepan, heat tomatoes and corn over medium heat to a simmer; cook 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon one-fourth of tomato-corn mixture into baking dish; spread to cover bottom.
• In medium bowl, mix egg, ricotta cheese, roasted peppers and 1/4 cup of the cheese.
• Fill each cooked pasta shell with about 2 tablespoons ricotta mixture; place in baking dish. Pour remaining tomato-corn mixture over shells. Cover dish with foil.
• Bake 30 minutes. Uncover baking dish; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake uncovered 5 to 10 minutes longer or until bubbly and cheese is melted.
