Rastelli’s
Ingredients
-
4 Medium Bell Peppers
-
1 pkg Rastelli’s Chicken Strips
-
1 ½ cups cooked Brown Rice
-
1 cup prepared Pesto Sauce
-
½ cup shredded Havarti Cheese
-
Fresh Basil Leaves, chopped
Directions
Preheat broiler. Cut peppers lengthwise in half; remove stems and seeds. Place peppers on a baking sheet, skin side up. Broil 4 inches from heat until skins blister, about 5 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°.
Cook chicken strips in a saute pan until cooked through. Set aside and shred.
In a large bowl, combine chicken, rice and pesto. When peppers are cool enough to handle, fill with chicken mixture; return to baking sheet.
Bake until heated through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese; bake until cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes longer. If desired, sprinkle with basil before serving.
