Bell peppers stuffed with beef and broccoli are a fragrant and nutritious dish inspired by traditional Azerbaijani cuisine. Azerbaijanis are known for their meat dishes, and this recipe is a great example of how simple ingredients can come together to create rich flavor. Sweet peppers baked until soft and filled with a juicy mixture of beef, broccoli, and onions acquire a tender texture with a pleasant kick from black pepper. Melted cheese adds creaminess and makes the dish even more appetizing. This appetizer is perfect for both everyday dinners and festive gatherings as it is both light and filling. Traditionally, such dishes are accompanied by fresh herbs and yogurt sauces, creating a harmonious and balanced taste. It’s an ideal option for lovers of baked vegetables and hearty meat fillings!
