When I did my Stuffed Poblano Peppers the other day, it was a love affair that I wanted to keep in the dark – but couldn’t. Peppers are a fantastic vessel for carrying delicious meat while keeping the fats inside and easy to eat. Not to mention, they add so much color and vibrancy to the plate that you just want to dig in!

Who doesn’t love Korean BBQ flavors? Sweet, spicy, sticky, and absolutely delicious to eat. The ginger, garlic, and spicy chili sauce really elevate the beef to become something you don’t want to stop eating. It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Asian style cuisine, and if you’re one too – this is a dish you don’t want to miss.

And to top it off? We add fried eggs with a gooey yolk to make it the messiest and tastiest eating experience you’ve ever had. The rich egg yolks are the perfect match for the sweet and spicy Korean BBQ beef, and the perfect way to accompany the dish. Come down, get a messy face, and enjoy these Korean BBQ beef stuffed bell peppers – you won’t regret it.

Yields 4 Servings of Korean BBQ Beef Stuffed Bell Peppers

The Preparation

Meat & Peppers

1 pound ground beef
2 medium bell Peppers, sliced in half
2 stalks green onion, sliced thin
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced ginger
Salt and pepper to taste
8 large eggs

Korean BBQ Sauce

1/3 cup sugar-free apricot preserves, like Polaner’s brand
1 ½ tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Reduced Sugar Ketchup
1 tablespoon chili paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

The Execution

1. Start by browning the 1 lb. of ground beef. Set your pan to medium-high heat and then once the pan is hot, add the beef. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Let the meat cook until browned, then add 2 tsp. minced garlic and 2 tsp. minced ginger.

3. Once you have mixed in the garlic and ginger, push the beef to one side of the pan. Add sliced spring onions and let fry for a minute or two. Mix everything together and set aside.

4. Combine 1/3 cup sugar free apricot preserves, 1 1/2 tbsp. rice wine vinegar, 1 tbsp. reduced sugar ketchup, 1 tbsp. chili paste, and 1 tbsp. soy sauce (or coconut aminos) in a small saucepan. Add extra chili flakes if you like extra spice.

5. Let this come to a boil while you stir. Continue stirring and let reduce until slightly thickened.

6. Add half of the sauce to your ground beef mixture and mix together well.

7. Slice bell peppers in half (including stems) and de-seed the inside. Stuff the peppers with ground beef and set onto a cookie sheet with a silpat.

8. Put into the oven at 350F for about 12-15 minutes.

9. Start frying the eggs 1 or 2 at a time. You can alternative cook all at once, but you will have to cut them up at the end. Each half of the bell pepper should have 2 fried eggs to accompany it.

10. Once the peppers are done, brush with extra sauce and serve with 2 eggs! Garnish with black sesame seed and a little more sliced spring onion.
