Grilled Bell Peppers Version 2 Recipes

GRILLED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Take several bell peppers, cleaned of the stems and seeds. Cut into strips lengthwise. These can be four to six depending on the size of the peppers and your preference.
• Season LIGHTLY with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Brush both sides of the strips with good olive oil.
• Place skin side down on hot grill, until skin blisters and peppers soften (3-8 minutes depending on grill). You can let the skin brown a bit if desired.
• Turn peppers and grill until inner side is done (about half the time of the skin side -- 2-4 minutes).
• Try this with different color peppers. Maybe add a few green onions.
• Try this with Anaheim peppers -- Very good!
• Try adding sliced zucchini, too.

• Cut the red peppers in half and scoop out the seeds and ribs. Place them onto a baking sheet.
• To the reserved brown rice mixture, stir in half the cheese and all the tomatoes. Stuff the peppers with the rice mixture, dividing it evenly. Top the peppers with the remaining cheese. Bake until the peppers are tender and the cheese has melted, 25 to 30 minutes.

• Remove peppers from grill; when cool enough to handle, peel off skin and cut peppers into 2-inch-wide pieces. Transfer to a bowl, toss with oil, and season with salt.

• Preheat grill to medium high, or oven to 400.

• In a bowl, combine rice, pepper jack cheese, and half of the cheddar cheese.
• Fill peppers with rice mixture. Top with remaining cheddar cheese.
