Treat yourself to a savory delight of smoky bacon and colorful peppers, making dinner a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Start by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion and 3 minced garlic cloves. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
In a bowl, combine 1 pound of ground beef, sautéed onion and garlic, 8 ounces of cream cheese, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Season with 1 teaspoon each of salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well.
While the filling is cooling slightly, prepare the bell peppers by slicing the tops off and removing the seeds. You can use any color of bell peppers for a delightful presentation.
Fill each bell pepper with the beef and cheese mixture, packing it tightly. Wrap each stuffed pepper with 2 slices of bacon, securing it with a toothpick if necessary.
Place the wrapped peppers in a baking dish and cover with foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy.
Let the peppers cool slightly for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
