This side dish is from Jamie Oliver’s Moroccan Lamb Chop 30 Minute Meal recipe. I was intrigued by the peppers because they took no time to assemble and looked like they could accompany all sorts of dishes.
Despite the super quick turnaround time this side dish is really tasty. The peppers have been pre-roasted and have a sweet, charred taste. They're soft and salty from soaking in brine so you won’t need to add any extra salt.
I’ve modified the original recipe to include breadcrumbs, which I combine with the cheese and stuff into the peppers as well as sprinkling on top.
