Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
- Cut the capsicums in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Place them in a baking dish, cut side up.
- In a large frying pan, sauté the onion and garlic until soft. Add the minced beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes, smoked paprika, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Qetoe Rice according to package instructions: cover with boiling water, sit for 5 minutes, fluff, and incorporate into the beef mixture, mixing well.
- Fill each capsicum half with the beef and Qetoe rice mixture, pressing down lightly to pack it in. Sprinkle with cheese if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the capsicums are tender and the cheese is melted and golden. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
