Turkey and Swiss stuffed bell peppers

Name: Turkey and Swiss stuffed bell peppers
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Italian
Ingredients: 14 oz Bell peppers; 1¼ lb Ground turkey; 4 oz Swiss cheese; 8½ oz Riced cauliflower; 4 oz Crushed tomatoes; 2 oz Onion; Garlic cloves, three, minced; Dried oregano and smoked paprika, a teaspoon of each; 1½ tbsp Olive oil; Sea salt, to taste

Turkey is lean enough to carry a real layer of Swiss on top, and roasting the pepper shells empty first gets them tender at the same moment the filling is hot through, instead of crunchy under a finished top.

Method

5 steps · 45 minutes

Heat the oven to 400F. Halve the peppers through the stem, scrape out the seeds, and roast them cut side down on an oiled sheet pan for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile brown the turkey in the oil over medium-high heat, breaking it up, until no pink remains and it starts to color, about 8 minutes.
Add the onion, garlic, oregano and paprika for 2 minutes, then the cauliflower and tomatoes, and cook until the pan is almost dry. Season well: turkey needs more salt than beef.
Turn the peppers cut side up, pack the filling in, and lay the Swiss cheese over the top.
Bake for 15 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbling and browned at the edges.
