Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the bell peppers by slicing the tops off and removing the seeds and membranes.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. If using mushrooms, add them now and cook until tender.
Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for a couple of minutes. Remove from heat and stir in half of the shredded cheese.
Spoon the beef mixture into each prepared bell pepper. Place them upright in a baking dish.
Top each pepper with the remaining shredded cheese.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let the peppers cool for a few minutes before garnishing with chopped parsley. Serve warm.
Notes
These stuffed peppers can be prepared ahead of time and baked when ready to serve.
