Ingredients

• 6 pieces Green bell peppers
• 1 pound Ground lamb
• 1 cup Cooked white rice
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 15-ounce can Crushed tomatoes
• 1 cup Chicken or beef broth

Directions

Step 1

Slice off the tops of the green bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Rinse the peppers and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground lamb to the skillet. Cook until the meat is browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 6-7 minutes.

Step 5

Mix in the tomato paste, cooked rice, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir well to combine and remove from heat.

Step 6

Stuff each prepared bell pepper with the lamb and rice mixture, packing it tightly but leaving a little room at the top.

Step 7

In the crock pot, combine the crushed tomatoes and chicken or beef broth. Stir to blend evenly.

Step 8

Place the stuffed bell peppers upright into the crock pot, ensuring they fit snugly and are partially submerged in the tomato sauce.

Step 9

Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is fully heated through.

Step 10

Carefully remove the cooked peppers from the crock pot and serve with the tomato sauce spooned over the top. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
