Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 large bell peppers (any color) Tops sliced off and seeds removed
  • 1 lb thinly sliced beef steak (like sirloin or flank steak) For best flavor, choose fresh, lean cuts
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional) Add during beef cooking if using
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded Can substitute with mozzarella or cheddar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For cooking the beef mixture
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • to taste Salt and pepper For seasoning

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds. Set them aside.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft.
  3. Add the beef strips and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. If you’re using mushrooms, add them now.
  4. Season with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
Assembly and Baking
  1. Stuff each bell pepper with the beef mixture, pressing down gently to pack them well.
  2. Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese generously over the stuffed peppers.
  3. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish, add a splash of water to the bottom of the dish, and cover with foil.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes.
  5. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  6. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For extra nutrition, consider adding spinach or zucchini to the beef filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze tightly for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes.
