Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly oil a baking dish large enough to hold the peppers upright.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Cook the chopped onion until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the grated garlic and cook 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes if using. Simmer for 5 minutes.
3. In a large bowl, combine the shredded beef, cooked rice, the warm tomato mixture and chopped parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning. The filling should be juicy but not runny.
4. Place the prepared peppers in the dish and fill each one almost to the top with the mixture. Spoon a little extra tomato sauce over each and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
5. Pour ½ cup of water or broth into the bottom of the dish and cover loosely with foil.
6. Bake covered for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake another 10 to 15 minutes, until the peppers are tender and slightly browned on top.
7. Sprinkle with crumbled feta or grated Kasseri before serving, if desired.
