- 5 banana pepper
- 1 ounce goat cheese
- 1/4 cup green onion chopped
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1/4 pork sausage minced
- 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 tsp basil leaves dried
To start with, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
While the oven heats, take a bowl and add sausage, mozzarella, goat cheese, basil leaves, green onion, and black pepper. Mix it well.
Now to prepare your peppers, cut them from the stem and scoop out all the seeds. You can also make a long slit along the length of the pepper for easy filling and cleaning.
Take your pork mix and stuff the pepper to the end. Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees F for 15-20 minutes. Your stuffed banana peppers are ready, you can serve them hot!
Alternate: If you want a vegetarian version of these peppers, you can alternately use a potato and peanut-based filling. Indians, usually, prepare 'bharwan mirchi' where they use this filling with a lot of Indian masalas (spices) that add to its taste.
You can also try modifying the recipe with your ideas and as per your taste specifications.
