Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Combine the chicken, chili powder, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a large bowl and toss to coat.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it just begins to smoke. Add the chicken and cook, undisturbed, until it just starts to brown in spots, about 2 minutes. Add the onions and cook, stirring often, until tender, about 3 minutes more.
- Transfer the chicken and onion mixture to another large bowl and rinse and dry the skillet. Add the rice, 1/2 cup of the cheese, half the lime juice, 3/4 teaspoon salt and few grinds of pepper to the chicken and toss to combine. Divide the filling among the peppers.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet, arrange the peppers on top and turn to high heat. When the oil starts to sizzle, about 2 minutes, transfer to the oven and bake until the filling is hot and the peppers are softened, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the peppers and bake until melted, about 3 minutes more.
- Drizzle the remaining lime juice over the peppers and top with the cilantro leaves. Serve with the sour cream, guacamole and pico de gallo if desired.

THE BEST STUFFED PEPPERS
We've made this classic easier and faster by using the microwave to par-cook the peppers, saving you about 45 minutes of cook time! This is a great recipe to use up leftover rice. Be sure to really pile in the filling (mounding it is ok) as it will shrink as it cooks.

Steps:
- If your peppers don't sit upright on your cutting board, trim about 1/8-inch off the bottoms to even them out so they can stand without falling over. Cut the top off each pepper about 1/2-inch down. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the remaining flesh from the tops. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 12 minutes. Carefully uncover and let them sit until ready to assemble.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the beef in an even layer and cook undisturbed until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, breaking up any clumps with the back of a spoon and scraping up any browned bits from the pan until the meat is lightly browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the browned meat to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add the reserved chopped peppers, onions, garlic, thyme, 4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until falling apart and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until brick red colored, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook until the mixture is reduced, very thick and no smell of alcohol remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Transfer to the bowl with the beef. Stir in the rice until completely combined. (The mixture will be wet.) Season with salt and pepper.
- Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
- Place the peppers cut-side up in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon the filling into the peppers, gently pressing it in with the back of a spoon. Be careful not to overstuff and split the sides of the peppers. Bake for 15 minutes. Then top with the cheese and continue baking until the filling is heated through and the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.
CHICKEN-STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS
Both for a family meal and for entertaining, this is a dish I serve frequently. It's very appealing to the eye, and people like the wild rice and the peppers. What I learned about cooking came from an expert - my husband! He's the real chef in the family. We have a 12-year-old daughter and 5-year-old son. -Shelley Armstrong, Buffalo Center, Iowa

CHICKEN AND RICE STUFFED PEPPERS
My fiance loves stuffed peppers but I had never made them. So after looking at quite a few recipes, I decided to put my own special twist on them and see what he thought. He loved them! I used chicken to keep it on the healthy side and used low-fat items whenever possible to try to keep it healthy. I hope everyone else enjoys!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Cut the tops off of the peppers and scoop out seeds and insides so the pepper is hollow. Stand peppers in a deep baking dish. Set aside.
- Cook whole grain rice according to package directions (I used Success Boil-in-Bag; it turns out perfect every time in the microwave). Make sure to drain and fluff rice as soon as it's done cooking.
- While rice is cooking, sprinkle seasoned salt and garlic powder over cubed chicken breast (season to taste). Cook in a large saucepan, adding diced onion halfway through cooking. Cook until chicken is no longer pink and onion is tender.
- Set burner heat to low and add rice and spaghetti sauce to chicken in saucepan. Stir until well combined.
- Stir in Parmesan and Mozzarella cheeses to chicken mixture. Stir until well combined and Mozzarella cheese has melted.
- Add garlic powder and hot sauce (more or less of each to taste -- we like stuff spicy around here!) to chicken mixture and stir to combine.
- Let the mixture cook on Low heat for about 10 minutes to blend flavors.
- Remove from heat and divide equally and fill the 6 green peppers with chicken mixture. If it's not enough to fill them to the top, I just mix more spaghetti sauce and extra rice to get them filled.
- Add 1/2 c water to the bottom of the deep baking dish to help peppers cook. Bake in oven 45 minutes or until pepper cups are mostly tender with just a little crunch.
- Serve with additional shredded Mozzarella to sprinkle over the tops of peppers.
- PLEASE NOTE: All of my measurements are approximate as I don't usually measure my ingredients when making my own recipes. Please adjust the amounts of each ingredient to your liking and feel free to contact me if you don't understand some of my rambling instructions!
