Stuffed peppers with chicken in the oven. Peppers stuffed with chicken and rice

There are plenty of recipe options for stuffing sweet peppers. They can be stuffed with anything: mushrooms and vegetables, cottage cheese and cheese. But peppers stuffed with rice and meat, including minced chicken, which we will cook in the oven today, remain traditional and beloved. I don’t need to teach you how to choose minced poultry (or fillet from which it can be prepared) and rice, but when choosing sweet peppers, pay attention that they are not soft or cracked.

If you don’t like thick skin, it’s better to buy elongated varieties with thinner skin for our vegetable and poultry dishes. Brighter and more interesting taste in red peppers. Or does it just seem that way? Well, let's follow this recipe for stuffing peppers with rice and minced chicken and check if this is really so. And tomorrow you can start again with a dish with meat and vegetables, in the form of “boats”. Will that suit you?

For filling

  • minced chicken(fillet) - 500-600 grams,
  • rice - 200 grams,
  • one onion,
  • ground peppers,
  • salt - to taste,
  • one egg,
  • water - a couple of glasses (400 grams).

For the sauce

  • allspice - 8-10 peas,
  • Bay leaf- from five pcs.,
  • onion - one piece,
  • tomato paste - 160 grams, more is possible,
  • vegetable oil for frying.



How to cook peppers stuffed with chicken and rice, with photo

We rinse thoroughly and set the rice to cook in a saucepan, filling it with water and closing the container with a lid. While it's cooking, let's take care of the peppers. We cut off their tails. Using a sharp knife, cut out the stalks so carefully that they can then tightly close the resulting holes.



Select seeds from peppers.


After rinsing the vegetables with water, place them in a pan of boiling water.


Blanch for no more than five minutes. Then we place it on a flat dish with the holes facing down so that the water drains well.


If you started cooking with fillet, then for minced meat we grind the chicken fillet with onions through a meat grinder

Place the cooked rice in a colander so that all the water drains from it and combine it with the minced chicken. Add spices (salt, ground peppers) to taste along with the egg and mix.


We fill the insides of each sweet pepper with the resulting mixture. By the way, it’s not a fact that all the minced meat will go away. It is difficult to calculate its quantity accurately. If there is any left, form small meatballs and place them in the sauce along with the peppers.


For the sauce, first fry the onion.


When it browns a little, combine it with tomato paste and the remaining ingredients for the sauce.


When is it formed homogeneous mass, dilute it a little with some water, or even better, low-fat sour cream. But this is up to you. You can use these ingredients, or you can get creative and experiment with something else.

Pour some of the sauce into the bottom of an oven-safe dish in which the peppers will be stewed for half an hour.


We lay them tightly - “butts” to each other. Pour over the remaining sauce. 180 degrees is enough to finish cooking the dish in the oven. Time will fly by. Roasting for about 30 minutes in the oven will be enough for those who like their peppers to remain a bit firm. And some people prefer a soft version. Then I recommend increasing the time to 40-50 minutes.

And vegetables that contain a large number of fibers facilitate this process. These, of course, include peppers, carrots and tomatoes. In addition, all these products are not classified as “energy-intensive”. Therefore, minced chicken and rice deserve special attention. According to calculations, it is 79.8 kilocalories per 100 grams of product. This is very little, considering that the energy value of the same dish with minced pork exceeds 203 kilocalories. Of course, you can also use beef for the job. But this will not solve the problem, because the energy content of stuffed peppers with such minced meat will still exceed 113 kilocalories.
