Santa Fe Turkey Stuffed Peppers

Step 1

In a large skillet brown the turkey and season with salt.

Step 2

When the turkey is browned, add onion, garlic, black beans, cilantro, serrano pepper, diced tomatoes, and cumin. Mix well and simmer on low, covered for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Remove lid, add corn and simmer an additional 5 minutes or until all the liquid reduces.

Step 4

Preheat oven to 350°.

Step 5

Cut peppers in half lengthwise, removing seeds and stem.

Step 6

Place peppers, cut side up in an oven-proof dish. Fill each pepper with 1/2 cup turkey mixture. Pour about 1/3 cup water or chicken broth on the bottom of the dish.

Step 7

Cover tight with foil. Bake 45-50 minutes, or until the peppers become soft.

Step 8

Remove foil, top each with 1 1/2 tbsp of cheese and bake uncovered an additional 5 minutes.

Step 9

Top with scallions and serve with reduced-fat sour cream if desired (optional).
