1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper

Preparation of Stuffed Peppers

1 – Place the ground beef in a large bowl together with the breadcrumbs, the grated Parmesan and the egg.
2 – Add the salt, pepper, garlic, nutmeg and parsley.
3 – Mix well with your hands until everything is combined.
4 – The filling is ready; now clean the peppers. Cut each pepper into 3 or 4 pieces, removing the ribs, seeds and any inedible parts.
5 – Fill each piece with some of the filling and when finished, preheat the air fryer to 338°F.
6 – Once hot, place the parchment on the base and arrange the stuffed peppers in the basket.
COOKING IN THE AIR FRYER: Spray a little oil and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Now cook at 338°F for 20 – 25 minutes.
COOKING IN A TRADITIONAL OVEN: Spray a little oil and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F (conventional) for 30 – 40 minutes.
