Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Cut off the tops of the peppers; pull out the seeds. Drizzle the insides with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil and season with salt. Arrange cut-side down in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until softened but not collapsed, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until browned, about 15 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl. Add 1 more tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Remove to the bowl with the mushrooms and wipe out the skillet.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery and shallot; cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, Italian seasoning and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add the parsley and cook until the sauce has thickened, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the rice and mushroom-turkey mixture to the skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Stuff the filling into the peppers, being sure to pack it in. Stand the stuffed peppers upright in the baking dish. Cover with foil, return to the oven and bake until heated through, about 20 minutes.
- Stir together the panko, Parmesan and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small bowl. Uncover the peppers and sprinkle evenly with the panko mixture. Return to the oven and bake until starting to brown, about 10 more minutes.

Tips:
- Choose the right bell peppers: Look for bell peppers that are firm, brightly colored, and have smooth skin. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have soft spots.
- Prepare the bell peppers properly: Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse the peppers thoroughly and pat them dry.
- Cook the turkey thoroughly: Ground turkey can be cooked in a skillet over medium heat until it is no longer pink. You can also bake the turkey in the oven at 350°F for 30-40 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Use a variety of spices: This recipe uses a combination of chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic, and onion powder to flavor the turkey filling. You can adjust the spices to your liking, or add other spices that you enjoy.
- Don't overcook the bell peppers: The bell peppers should be tender but still have a slight crunch. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.

Spicy Turkey Stuffed Bell Peppers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are packed with flavor and nutrition, and they can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try!
