How to cook deliciously - Greek-Inspired Stuffed Peppers

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2. Stage

Place 1/2 cup rice in a container and cover with water. Allow to soak for the 15 or 20 minutes, and drain well.

3. Stage

Combine onion, garlic, rosemary, parsley, oregano, dill, coriander, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; stir to combine. Add ground lamb and drained rice. Using your hands, mix well until ingredients are evenly distributed.

4. Stage

Slice bell peppers in half, top to bottom, and remove membranes and seeds. Evenly divide lamb mixture amongst each of the bell pepper halves. Set stuffed peppers in a shallow baking dish.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until filling is cooked through, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the filling should read 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Allow to cool slightly, and garnish with tzatziki (see note). Sprinkle feta cheese crumbles and chopped tomatoes evenly over the stuffed peppers before serving.
