  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

The key to this dish lies in selecting the freshest ingredients, allowing their natural flavors to shine. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 4 large bell peppers, halved and seeds removed
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Juice of half a lemon

If you’re short on shrimp, chicken makes a delightful alternative. And for a hint of extra heat, a pinch of red pepper flakes can be added.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the pepper halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the shrimp to the skillet. Sprinkle with paprika, salt, and pepper, then cook until pink and opaque, around 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stir in lemon juice and parsley, then remove from heat.
  5. Spoon the shrimp mixture into each pepper half, dividing it evenly.
  6. Bake the stuffed peppers in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the peppers are tender.
  7. Garnish with additional parsley before serving.
