Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Start by preparing your bell peppers. Slice off the tops of the peppers and remove the seeds and membranes from the inside. If needed, slice a thin piece off the bottom of each pepper to help them stand upright in the baking dish.
-
In a large bowl, combine the cooked couscous, chickpeas, raisins, parsley, mint, onion, garlic, cumin, cinnamon, coriander, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Stuff each pepper with the couscous mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in tightly. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the olive oil and vegetable broth. Pour this mixture over the stuffed peppers in the baking dish. This will help keep the peppers moist while they bake.
-
Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
-
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the tops of the peppers to slightly brown.
-
Once done, remove the stuffed peppers from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
