A hearty dish of Mediterranean stuffed peppers filled with a savory meat mixture and topped with a flavorful sauce. The combination of ground beef, herbs, and spices creates a satisfying meal perfect for any occasion, especially during Passover.
1: Preheat oven to 350 F.
2: Finely chop all herbs. Process onion and garlic until purée.
3: Prepare your meat mixture: combine meat, onion and garlic purée, herbs, pine nuts, and spices. Mix until well combined but do not over-mix.
4: Prepare your peppers: remove top and core the inside.
5: Stuff each pepper with the meat filling using a finger to push the meat as far as possible inside. Fill until top of pepper. Place in a Dutch oven. It’s best if they’re very stuck together.
6: Prepare your sauce: combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Mix until well combined. Pour gently over peppers. Top with chopped cilantro.
7: Cover the pot and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
