Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
¾ cup water
2 teaspoons chili powder
½ cup cooked rice
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce, divided
3 large red bell peppers
6 (1 inch) cubes Colby-Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Place the ground beef into a skillet over medium heat, and brown the meat, breaking it apart into crumbles as it cooks, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat. Stir in the taco seasoning, water, chili powder, cooked rice, salt, garlic salt, black pepper, and 1 can of tomato sauce; mix until thoroughly combined. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise, and remove stems, membranes, cores, and seeds. Place a steamer insert into a large saucepan, and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover, and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Place the peppers into the steamer insert, cover the pan, and steam until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Place the steamed peppers into the prepared baking dish, and fill lightly with the meat filling. Press 1 cube of Colby-Jack cheese into the center of the filling in each pepper, and spoon the remaining can of tomato sauce over the peppers. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the peppers are tender and the filling is hot, 25 to 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality beef fillets. Look for fillets that are evenly thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the fillets are tender and flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the beef fillets. The ideal internal temperature for medium-rare beef is 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Cooking the fillets past this temperature will make them tough and dry.
  • Use a variety of fillings. The possibilities are endless when it comes to fillings for stuffed beef fillets. Some popular options include cheese, vegetables, and cooked meats. Get creative and experiment with different flavor combinations.
  • Secure the fillings well. Once you have filled the beef fillets, be sure to secure the openings with toothpicks or kitchen twine. This will prevent the fillings from leaking out during cooking.
  • Cook the beef fillets in a flavorful liquid. This could be anything from beef broth to red wine. The liquid will help to keep the fillets moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Stuffed beef fillets are a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With careful preparation and cooking, you can create a dish that will wow your guests. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook beef fillets, give this recipe a try.
