Instructions

  1. Combine the rice, water, and 1/4 tsp of the salt in a large pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large pan on medium-high heat and cook the onion until it begins to soften. Then, add the beef and cook until no longer pink, breaking it up as you cook it.
  3. Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the rice. Add 1/2 cup of the cheese, the parsley, Italian seasoning, garlic, nutmeg, the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and mix well.
  4. Add the crushed tomatoes and mix well.
  5. Cut the tops off the peppers and gently remove the seeds and membranes.
  6. Place the peppers, cut side up, inside the mesh basket of your air fryer.
  7. Fill the peppers to the brim (they will be really full) with the filling.
  8. Cook on 360°F for 10-12 minutes, or until the peppers seem fork tender but still have some crunch.
  9. Sprinkle on the rest of the cheese and cook another minute or two (or briefly put them under the broiler), until the cheese melts. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
