This recipe is a cajun food lover's dream! I found a similar recipe on a cajun food blog and it made my mouth water just reading the ingredients! The bell peppers were so good- so full of flavor and spice. If you don't like seafood, you could easily just leave out the shrimp. The stuffing was really good and it would still be that way without the shrimp. Meals like this always seem hard and complicated- but it really wasn't. From start to finish it only took about 30-40 minutes.
Ingredients:
- 6 whole bell peppers, any color
- 1 pound of fresh, peeled shrimp
- 1/2 stick of butter
- 1 cup of chopped celery
- 1 cup of chopped onions
- 2 teaspoons of minced garlic
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 soup can of water
- 1 can of Rotel
- 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups of cooked rice
- 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese
- cajun seasoning
Directions:
1) Cut off tops of bell peppers and remove seeds.
2) In a large pot, boil the bell peppers and tops in lightly salted water for five minutes. Drain and place in a large, lightly greased pan.
3) In a large skillet, melt butter on low and saute onions, celery, and garlic.
4) Add the shrimp, Rotel, and seasoning and saute for 10 minutes.
5) Add the Worcestershire sauce, cooked rice, cream of mushroom and water. Stir well, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
6) Fill each bell pepper with shrimp mixture.
7) Blend bread crumbs and cheese together and sprinkle on top of each pepper.
8) Replace tops on peppers and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
9) Voila!
