Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 400˚F and place a large pan on medium to high heat.
- Cut the tops off the Green peppers and set them aside. Use your hands to hollow out the pepper.
- Toss the hollowed peppers with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a sheet pan in the oven for 10 min.
- While the peppers are roasting dice your vegetables to a quarter-inch thickness and mince the garlic.
- In the preheated pan start pour in your canola oil and then sautee the onion.
- Once the onion edges begin to brown, add mushrooms and carrots. Sautee for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the garlic and crumble at the same time and cook until the crumble is crispy.
- Add the thyme, cumin, salt, and pepper and toss to evenly distribute.
- Pour in your red wine and reduce until almost no moisture remains.
- The roasted peppers should have come out of the oven by now and be slightly softer.
- Mix the rice with the sauteed veg mix and combine. Use a spoon to stuff each pepper.
- Press down with the spoon to maximize the amount of stuffing in each pepper.
- Turn the oven down to 350˚F. Place the stuffed peppers back on the sheet pan spaced out.
- Cover the tops of each with aluminum foil to prevent the stuffing from drying out.
- Drizzle the balsamic on a plate and place one finished pepper upright, cut the other in half and lay flat.
