Cooking Steps
- Halve peppers, then remove the inside cores and seeds to make bowl shapes (keep the stems on).
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Core, then cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add half the tomatoes, half the vinegar (use all for 4 ppl) and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. (TIP: We love using olive oil in this recipe.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Place half the spinach over top. Do not toss until just before serving.
- Place peppers cut-side down on an unlined baking sheet.
- Coat the outside of each pepper half with 1/2 tsp oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Broil in the middle of the oven until tender-crisp, 8-10 min.
- Carefully remove from the oven. Flip peppers, cut-side up and set aside.
- Meanwhile, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, remove from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
- Cover and let stand for 5 min.
- When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil then turkey to the pan. Cook, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
- Stir in Turkish Spice Blend, remaining tomatoes and remaining spinach until spinach wilts, 1 min.
- Remove from heat.
- Add couscous, parsley, half the feta, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to pan with with turkey mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Stuff each pepper with turkey and couscous mixture. Reserve any leftover filling to serve.
- Broil stuffed peppers in the middle of the oven until filling is warmed through, 4-6 min.
- Let stuffed peppers cool for 5 min before serving.
- Meanwhile, toss salad to combine.
- Divide stuffed peppers and salad between plates.
- Serve any remaining turkey and couscous filling alongside.
- Sprinkle remaining feta over salad.
- Drizzle yogurt sauce over stuffed peppers.
If you've opted to get turkey, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to the pan, then add turkey. Cook turkey in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the beef.**
