Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground beef and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
½ medium yellow onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
1 ½ cups cooked long-grain white rice
1 tsp italian seasoning
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Chef's tip
If the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese.

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the pepper halves cut-side up in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour about 1/4 cup of water into the bottom of the dish to help the peppers steam as they bake.
2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains and the meat reaches 160°F (71°C) on an instant-read thermometer, about 6–8 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.
