Directions: |
Directions:Cut the tops of the bell peppers and clean out the seeds and ribs. Place upside down in a steamer and steam 5 min
Remove the sausage from the casing and brown it in a skillet. Add the fennel, onion, parsley, salt and pepper and cook until the fennel and onion are nicely carmelized - about 10 min.
NOTE - Cook the long grain rice about 10 min so it's only partially cooked. It will go in the pepper and finish cooking there.
To combine: In a large bowl add the rice, provolone cheese and marinara sauce. Stir until it's all mixed together nicely. Now add the sausage and mix up again. Cut the bell peppers in half and fill with the stuffing mixture.
Put about 1 cp of marinara sauce in the bottom of your baking pan and spread it out. Place the stuffed peppers in the baking pan. Spoon another cp or so of marinara sauce over the top of them, sprinkle with a little Italian bread crumbs and grated parmesan cheese, bake in a 350* oven for 30 min. |
