This recipe was a disaster! The peppers were burnt and the rice stuffing was undercooked.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but the flavors were still good. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.

Amazing recipe! The peppers were stuffed to the brim with a flavorful, spicy rice filling. The combination of spices and the slight heat from the peppers was perfect. Served these with a side of sour cream and extra hot sauce for those who like it ex
