Ingredients

  • 1 lb Pure Flavor® Aurora Bites Mini Sweet Peppers
  • 8 pieces of prosciutto
  • Parmesan, grated for garnish
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish
  • The filling:
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • 1/3 cup mozzarella, shredded
  • 3 tbsp fresh ricotta cheese
  • Salt, pepper and red pepper flakes to taste

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F and coat a baking pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

Slice peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stems on. Remove all the seeds from the inside and add to a plate.

Step 3

Combine all filling ingredients and mix well.

Step 4

Using a spoon, add filling to the inside of a pepper. Then take a piece of prosciutto (usually about half a slice or so) and wrap around each pepper so that it is fully covered. Repeat with remaining peppers and place evenly apart on the baking sheet.

Step 5

Season peppers with salt and pepper and bake for about 15-18 minutes, or until prosciutto starts to brown.

Step 6

Remove and transfer to a plate. Top with fresh grated parmesan and chopped parsley.
