Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 4 large bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Protein

  • 1 lb thinly sliced beef (top round or sirloin steak)

Dairy

  • 68 slices provolone cheese

Pantry Items & Seasonings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peppers: Wash the bell peppers thoroughly. Slice the tops off each pepper and remove the seeds and membranes inside. Set the hollowed peppers aside for stuffing later.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions, sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic. Sauté until onions become translucent and mushrooms soften, releasing their flavor.
  3. Cook the Beef: Increase heat to medium-high. Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until beef is browned and tender, breaking it apart evenly with a spatula.
  4. Stuff the Peppers: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Fill each hollowed bell pepper generously with the beef and vegetable mixture. Top the filling with slices of provolone cheese to cover like a melty blanket.
  5. Bake: Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes until peppers are tender but still hold their shape and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • Choose fresh, firm bell peppers to prevent sogginess during baking.
  • Use thin slices of beef for better texture and quicker cooking.
  • Do not overfill peppers; leave room for cheese to melt without spilling.
  • Use a sharp knife for clean cuts to ensure even cooking.
  • Allow peppers to rest a few minutes after baking for easier handling and better flavor melding.
