All your favorite flavors of the Southwest come together in these delicious Southwestern Turkey Stuffed Peppers, full of flavor from Colby Jack Cheese, Pico de Gallo, and, you guessed, it Ray's Loco Gringo Rub.

Instructions

  • Step 1: Preheat recteq to 400°F with a 12 inch cast iron skillet.
  • Step 2: Add the ground turkey and Ray’s Loco Gringo Rub and cook for 5-8 minutes until the meat is cooked through. Use a wooden spoon to break the turkey into small pieces.
  • Step 3: Add the pico de gallo, pinto beans, corn, and fire-roasted tomatoes and stir well. Allow to simmer for 5-8 minutes.
  • Step 4: In a medium sized bowl, add the ground turkey mixture and combine with the cooked rice. Allow the mixture to cool for 12-15 minutes. Stir in 1.5 cups of the shredded cheese.
  • Step 5: Cut the bell pepper in half across the stem to create 2 equal halves. Using a small spoon, scrape out any seeds and remove the white membrane. Rub each bell pepper half with olive oil and sprinkle with Colden’s Freakin’ Greek Rub.
  • Step 6: Using a large spoon, fill each pepper half, using the spoon to compact the mixture. Add to a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese.
  • Step 7: Cook at 400°F for 30-35 minutes until the bell pepper is soft and the filling is golden brown on the top.
