Instructions. 1  Preheat the oven to 400Â°F (200Â°C). 2  Cut the peppers in half, discard the seeds and place the peppers in a greased baking dish. 3  Drizzle olive oil on top of the peppers and place them in the oven while you are preparing the filling.  Chop onion and garlic finely. Heat olive oil in a frying pan, add the finely chopped onions and garlic and fry until soft. Add ground beef. Fry for 5 minutes or more, and add chili, cumin, salt and pepper and then the crushed tomatoes. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in half the cheese. Stuff the peppers with ground-beef mixture, sprinkle cheese on top and return to oven. Bake in oven for another 25 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and some leafy greens.
