Ingredients:
1 green bell pepper |
1 red bell pepper |
1 yellow bell pepper |
1/2 pound ground beef |
1/2 pound ground turkey |
2 slices white bread, cut into cubes |
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes with basil |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
1 egg |
1 small onion, chopped |
1 tablespoon chopped sage leaves, plus 6 to 8 whole leaves, for frying |
a few dashes worcestershire sauce |
a few dashes hot sauce |
salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon oil |
vegetable oil, for frying |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Remove core and seeds from peppers. Slice into 1 inch rings and place on nonstick baking sheet. You should get about 3 rings per pepper. In a large bowl mix together beef, turkey, bread, 1/2 cup of the tomatoes, garlic, egg, onion, chopped sage, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Press meatloaf mixture evenly into pepper rings. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. Saute meatloaf rings on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Add remaining tomatoes to skillet and bake until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat 1-inch vegetable oil until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 325 degrees F. Drop sage leaves into oil and fry until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish meatloaf rings with fried sage leaves.
