Ground Beef Stuffed Peppers (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 cloves of garlic, minced
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
30 ml of oil
Pitted olives to taste
Fresh herbs (cheiro-verde) to taste
Black pepper to taste
Salt to taste
Aluminum foil for covering

Where to find ingredients

You can find these ingredients at any local supermarket, focusing on the produce section for fresh peppers and herbs, and the butcher counter for high-quality ground beef.

Preparation method

  1. Thoroughly wash the bell peppers, 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 that it remains well-loosened during 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, fresh herbs, salt, black pepper, and finish by incorporating the chopped hard-boiled eggs
  6. Stuff each 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 place it in a preheated oven for 10 minutes so that the bell pepper cooks in the steam
  8. Carefully remove the aluminum foil and let it bake for another 5 minutes to finish cooking and brown slightly
