Deconstructed stuffed pepper skillet 🍳

Ingredients:

* 1 pound ground turkey

* 4 large bell peppers cut into 1-2 inch pieces

* 1 1/2 cups white rice or brown rice

* 24 ounces Rao's marinara sauce

* 1 1/2 cups chicken broth low sodium

* Avocado oil for frying

* Parsley and sour cream for garnish, optional

Instructions:

* Preheat large pot or deep skillet on medium-high heat and add a bit of oil to coat. Add ground turkey and cook for 5 minutes, constantly breaking into small pieces and stirring. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.

* Return pot to the stove and swirl a bit more oil to coat. Add bell peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring only a few times and allowing brown edges to form.

* Add previously cooked ground turkey, rice, marinara sauce and chicken broth. Stir, cover and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low and simmer for 12-15 minutes for white rice and 30-40 minutes for brown rice.

* Stir and serve hot with garnishes, if you wish.

... Read moreDeconstructed stuffed peppers are a wonderful alternative to traditional stuffed peppers. This dish not only saves time in the kitchen but also allows you to enjoy all the classic flavors in a new way. The key ingredients—ground turkey and bell peppers—provide a lean protein option and vibrant color to your meal. Using marinara sauce gives a rich and savory base that enhances the overall taste. You can easily swap the ground turkey for beef or even a vegetarian substitute for a different flavor profile. For a complete healthy meal, serve this dish with a side of quinoa or a fresh green salad. Additionally, adding beans or extra vegetables can make it more filling and nutritious. Don't forget to experiment with your favorite spices or herbs to personalize the flavor! Garnish with sour cream and parsley for an added touch. Why not try making it with different varieties of peppers, such as yellow or orange, for a twist? This recipe is not just about tastes but also about creating a colorful presentation. Ideal for both family dinners and meal prep, this deconstructed stuffed pepper skillet is sure to become a favorite in your household!
