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 green herbs to taste
Black pepper to taste
Salt to taste
Aluminum foil for covering

Where to find ingredients

You can find fresh bell peppers, onions, and garlic at local markets or supermarkets in the produce section. Ground beef and eggs are readily available at the butcher or dairy aisle of local shops. Fresh green herbs can be bought at greengrocers.

Preparation method

  1. Wash the bell peppers well, cut off the top part to form a lid, and carefully remove all the inner 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 loose 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, green herbs, salt, and black pepper, and finish by incorporating the chopped boiled eggs
  6. Generously stuff each bell pepper 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 in a preheated oven for 10 minutes so that the bell pepper cooks in the steam
  8. Remove the aluminum foil carefully and let it roast for another 5 minutes to finish cooking and brown slightly
