Ingredients

  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 2 pounds chicken breasts cooked and shredded
  • 1 large yellow onion minced
  • 3 cups long-grain white rice cooked
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups peas

Instructions

  • Cook rice and peas, using chicken broth for extra flavor. We put ours in a rice cooker. Cook chicken, and shred. Chop or finely mince an onion.
  • When rice is cooked, mix together with chicken and onion. Some people prefer to boil their peppers before stuffing, but I prefer to just cut the core out and stuff with the rice and chicken mixture. Once finished with this process, place extra rice mixture around peppers. Bake at 350° for about 30 minutes or until heated through.
  • Remove from oven and serve.
