Prosciutto Wrapped Sweet Stuffed Peppers

Prosciutto Wrapped Sweet Stuffed Peppers

Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 12 Pure Flavor® Aurora bites mini sweet peppers
  • 8 pieces of prosciutto 
  • Shredded parm for topping
  • Parsley for topping

The filling:

  • 3 lbs fresh ricotta
  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 egg, beaten
  • salt/pepper/red pepper flakes to taste
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400. Coat a pan with cooking spray.
  • Slice Pure Flavor® Aurora Bites mini sweet peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stems on. Leaving the stems on keeps them flat on the pan and helps them hold together when you add the filling later. Remove all the seeds from the inside and add to a plate. 
  • Make your filling: combine ricotta, mozzarella, egg, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes to a bowl. Mix until combined. 
  • Using a spoon, add filling to the inside of a pepper. Then take a piece of prosciutto (usually about half a slice or so) and wrap around each pepper so that it is fully covered. Repeat with remaining peppers and place evenly apart on the baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper and bake for about 15-18 min or until prosciutto starts to brown.
  • Remove and transfer to a plate. Top with fresh grated parmesan and chopped parsley. Enjoy!
