If you love stuffed peppers but hate how long they take to prep, then this recipe is for you. This low FODMAP super speedy deconstructed stuffed pepper meal is big on flavour but is ready in 30 minutes.

It has yummy pan-fried peppers (aka capsicums), tasty ground beef and tender rice topped with gorgeous melty cheese.

Method

  1. Place the rice on to cook according to the packet instructions. We used the absorption method.
  2. Prep the green capsicum/bell pepper and carrots.
  3. Heat a large ovenproof frypan over medium-high heat. Add half of the garlic infused oil and fry the beef until it’s just cooked. Then add the remaining garlic infused oil, capsicum/bell pepper and carrots. Fry for another 3-4 minutes until the beef is golden and the carrots have started to soften. Add the paprika, oregano, cumin and sugar, stir and then fry for one minute until fragrant. Turn down the heat to medium-low and add the stock, canned tomatoes, tomato paste and a few good grinds of salt and pepper. Stir well and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes or until the liquid has almost reduced.
  4. Once the rice has cooked, add it to the beef mixture and stir through. Remove from the heat and top with grated cheese. Place in the oven and grill/broil under high heat for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
  5. Serve the low FODMAP speedy deconstructed stuffed peppers in bowls with a sprinkle of finely chopped spring onion/scallions.
