Stuffed green peppers made easy in one skillet.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
On the stovetop, brown meat and 1/3 cup diced onion in an oven safe skillet (see note below). Drain grease.
Stir in tomatoes, 1/3 cup rice, Worcestershire, basil, water, salt and pepper.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes until rice is tender.
Stir in peppers and half of the cheese, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in a 350-degree oven, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
Note: if not using an oven safe skillet, prepare the rice mixture in a sauce pan and then pour into a casserole dish before baking in the oven.

Great make ahead recipe.. I made it up to adding shredded cheese on top, let it cool, transferred to casserole dish, topped with cheese and put in freezer to bake later. I also upped the seasonings, just because we are a spicy group… yummiliciousness!!!

It was a quick dinner with ingredients I generally have on hand. I felt like it was missing something. I think next time I will go heavier on the spices and switch to an Italian blend seasoning. Also, I had trouble as well getting the rice done. I think I let it simmer too lightly. It actually needs to sit at a higher heat than when you cook normal rice.

Excellent recipe! I was searching for a ‘simple’ recipe and I found a winner. I used Rotel for the tomatoes, and it added just the perfect amount of heat. My hubby and I both loved it!

Made this for a church potluck so I doubled it and tried crockpotting it. Crockpot tip: Bring to rolling boil in a saucepan then add to crockpot. This sat on high all day and the rice was stillraw! I finally put a portion in a saucepan to boil and it was ready in 10 minutes!
Tasted great!!!
