    Prep Time 5 mins
    Cook Time 30 mins
    Total Time 35 mins
    Course Appetizer, Main Course, Side Dish
    Cuisine Mediterranean
    Servings 4 servings

    Ingredients
      

    • 4 peppers tops cut off and seeds removed
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 small onion diced
    • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
    • 1 pound ground turkey
    • ½ teaspoon oregano
    • ½ teaspoon dill weed
    • ¼ teaspoon dried mint
    • ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese plus extra for sprinkling

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Place hollowed out peppers in a baking dish. If the peppers don’t stand up, slice a little sliver off the bottom to give it a flat surface for stability.
    • Add onion to skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until softened and translucent. Add garlic and cook for another minute or so.
    • Move onion aside on the skillet and add ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with spoon {or a potato masher, which is my favorite tool for this task!}. Cook until the turkey is browned, mixing with the onion and garlic mixture.
    • Add oregano, dill, and dried mint and cook for about a minute. Toss in the crumbled feta and stir until just starting to melt.
    • Divide meat evenly among the four hollowed peppers. Top with a little extra feta if desired.
    • Bake for about 15-20 minutes until the peppers begin to soften and the tops are lightly browned.
    • Serve with rice or quinoa for a complete meal!

    Hi! I'm Dianna. I used to think cooking had to be complicated to be good, so I never considered it "my thing." Now I know that's far from true, and my mission is to create & share easy, mouthwatering recipes - from weeknight dinners to simple bites for entertaining - that anyone can make! Join me in my South Florida kitchen and let's get cooking!
