Stages of cooking
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Rinse the peppers thoroughly under cold running water.
-
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they turn translucent and slightly golden.
-
In a bowl, combine the crumbled Adygei cheese, sautéed onion and garlic mixture, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Stuff each pepper with the Adygei cheese mixture, making sure to fill them to the top. If desired, sprinkle a little grated Parmesan cheese on top of each pepper.
-
Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish, arranging them upright. You can also use a muffin tin for added stability.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers have softened and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
-
Once cooked, remove the stuffed peppers from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
-
Serve the Adygei Cheese Stuffed Peppers warm as an appetizer, side dish, or a light meal. Enjoy the mouthwatering combination of creamy Adygei cheese and the sweetness of the roasted peppers!
-
Note: You can also experiment with adding other ingredients like diced tomatoes, fresh herbs, or cooked ground meat to the Adygei cheese mixture for additional flavor variations.
