Tips:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees before you start cooking the peppers.
2. Use a sharp knife to cut the peppers in half length-wise. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and ribs from the inside of each pepper half.
3. To make the filling for the peppers, start by cooking the chopped onion and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat until they’re softened.
4. Then, add in the ground beef and cook it until it’s browned. Drain any excess grease from the beef before stir in the tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings.
5. Once the filling is cooked, spoon it into each of the prepared pepper halves.
6. For the cheesesteak toppings, melt together butter and flour in a small saucepan over low heat. Then, whisk in milk and bring the mixture to a simmer while continuing to whisk until it thickens slightly. Season it with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Spoon the cheese sauce over each stuffed pepper, then sprinkle on some shredded cheese and chopped green onions if desired. Place the stuffed peppers on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper and bake for 25-30 minutes or until they’re tender
Conclusion & Recipe:
The stuffed peppers were very good, and the cheese sauce was delicious. Overall, this was a great dish. The only thing I would change is the amount of time it took to make it. It took about an hour from start to finish, which is a bit long for a weeknight meal.
