CHICKEN ENCHILADA STUFFED BELL PEPPERS



Chicken Enchilada Stuffed Bell Peppers image

I couldn't find a recipe that I like so I made my own. It's basically what I would use for traditional enchiladas but in stuffed pepper form. The measurements are just estimates, I usually just eyeball it so the ingredients seem equally distributed. You can choose mild or spicy ingredients depending on your tastebuds.

Provided by emilydonald

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 pepper halves, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 -4 bell peppers (any color is fine)
1/2 pre-cooked rotisserie-cooked chicken, picked and shredded
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups Spanish rice, cooked (I like the Near East brand)
1 (8 ounce) can of hot enchilada sauce
pickeled jalapeno
habanero salsa (or hot salsa of your preference)
2 cups shredded cheese (colby-jack, pepper jack, cheddar whatever you like best)

Steps:

  • Cut peppers in half vertically, scoop out seeds and parboil or steam until they soften.
  • Mix the shredded chicken, black beans and rice.
  • Coat the bottom of a baking pan with a thin layer of Enchilada sauce and arrange the peppers in the bottom.
  • Fill the peppers with the chicken, rice, bean mixture.
  • Top with pickeled jalepenos, habanero salsa, enchilada sauce then cover with a generous amount of cheese.
  • Bake in the oven at 350 until heated through, usually 25-30 minutes if you're making them fresh and the rice, chicken etc are still warm from cooking.
  • Pour any remaining Enchilada Sauce over the cooked peppers once finished.

FELICITY'S CHICKEN STUFFED RED BELL PEPPERS



Felicity's Chicken Stuffed Red Bell Peppers image

There are lots of recipes for stuffed peppers, this is mine. I served these with my Garlicky Grilled Chicken. If you wanted to serve them as a main course, you could decrease the rice & use more meat in the filling. You could also use lamb or beef as a change from chicken. I have suggested using spices to taste, because you can vary it depending on your mood or the theme of your meal. I used oregano, but you could use harissa or cumin for a middle eastern flavor or chilli for some heat... it's up to you to make my dish yours :-) Enjoy!
