Ingredients
Scale
- Olive oil cooking spray (I like to use my misto)
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried chives
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp fennel
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup carrots, diced
- 1/2 cup zucchini, diced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice*
- 4 bell peppers, tops and seeds removed**
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Chop and prepare all vegetables.
- Spritz a large skillet with olive oil cooking spray and heat to medium high heat. Cook the ground chicken for about 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently. Chicken should be cooked through.
- Next, add the seasonings (oregano through black pepper) the carrots, zucchini, and tomato. Cook for about 5 more minutes.
- Add the brown rice to the chicken and vegetable mixture and stir to combine.
- Arrange the bell peppers in a casserole dish so they stand up. Fill each pepper with the chicken, rice and vegetable filling.
- Place the casserole dish in the oven and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes or until the center is 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
