Stuffed Bell Peppers with Ground Beef (Pimentão recheado com carne moída)

Ingredients

700 g of ground beef of your choice
8 medium-sized green bell peppers
2 large onions, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
30 ml of oil
Pitted olives to taste
Fresh parsley and scallions to taste
Black pepper to taste
Salt to taste
Aluminum foil for covering

Where to find ingredients

Find fresh produce and meat at local grocery stores, markets, or butchers. Olives and staples like oil and spices are available in the pantry aisles of any local market.

Preparation method

  1. Wash the bell peppers well, cut off the top part to form a lid, and carefully remove all internal seeds.
  2. In a pan, heat the oil and sauté the onion and garlic until lightly golden.
  3. Add the ground beef to the pan and stir constantly so it stays loose while cooking.
  4. Cook until the liquid from the meat and onion has almost completely evaporated, keeping the meat moist and seasoned.
  5. Remove the meat from the heat, mix in the olives, parsley and scallions, salt, black pepper, and finally incorporate the chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  6. Stuff each bell pepper generously with the ground beef mixture and place them in a baking dish previously greased with oil.
  7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes so the pepper cooks in the steam.
  8. Carefully remove the aluminum foil and let it bake for another 5 minutes to finish cooking and lightly brown.
