To cook them, heat 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil in a pot and add chopped onions to cook briefly, then add the ground beef and cook till fully browned. Season with kosher salt, pepper and ground allspice. Add the chickpeas and toss around to cook briefly.u003cimg alt=u0022ground beef and chickpeas cooked for stuffing mixtureu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/stuffed-peppers-recipe-1.jpgu0022/u003e
2. Add the chopped parsley, rice (after you've soaked the rice in water for 20 minutes or so and drained it well), paprika and tomato sauce. Add 2 1/2 cups of water and bring to a high simmer until the liquid is reduced by 1/2 (you want the water to reduce well enough that it is barely covering the rice mixture). Turn the heat to low and cover. Cook for 20 minutes or until the rice has absorbed all the moisture and is fully cooked through (the rice should not be hard nor too sticky). u003cimg alt=u0022Rice stuffing for stuffed bell peppersu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/stuffed-peppers-recipe-5.jpgu0022/u003e
3. While the rice mixture is cooking, work on preparing the bell peppers. Use 6 large bell peppers. Remove the tops and seeds so that you have bell pepper shells to carry the stuffing. u003cbr/u003eHeat a grill or indoor griddle (brushed with a little olive oil) to medium-high heat and grill the bell peppers, covered for 10 minutes or so. You will need to uncover and turn the bell peppers around frequently until they have softened a bit and gained a nice color on all sides. (Tip: You can skip grilling the peppers but allow more time for baking, they do need to be quite tender to serve). u003cbr/u003eu003cimg alt=u0022bell peppers on the grillu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/stuffed-peppers-recipe-2.jpgu0022/u003e
