STUFFED PEPPERS FOR TWO



Stuffed Peppers for Two image

My husband likes stuffed peppers, but my original recipe made too many servings. I cut it down to accommodate just the two of us. It helps to use a small casserole dish so the peppers won't tip over while they bake. For color, I serve steamed carrots to round out the meal perfectly. -Elaine Carpenter, Horseshoe Bay, Texas

Tips:

  • Always wash your rice thoroughly before cooking to remove any impurities and excess starch. This will help the rice cook evenly and prevent it from sticking together.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or pan for cooking the rice. This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from scorching.
  • Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
  • Once the water is boiling, add the rice and stir it gently to distribute it evenly.
  • Cover the pot or pan and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the rice for 18-20 minutes, or until all of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
  • Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains.
  • For added flavor, you can add a variety of seasonings to the rice before cooking, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder.
  • You can also add vegetables, meat, or fish to the rice for a complete meal.
