OK. I thought I submitted a review, but it's not here. Well, in short, I'm not going to rate this because I changed the recipe. I used fish sauce instead of soy, added Thai red curry paste to give it some heat and more zing, and also added matchstick carrots and sliced green onions, as suggested by one of the other "chefs." I baked the peppers until they were soft. At 20 minutes, they were still very hard. All in all, very tasty. Will continue to work on this one.

LOVE this recipe. Only made a couple small changes. I half the peanut butter to only 1/4 cup then use 1 cup of medium salsa. I also use only 1 pound of ground chicken and add 1 cup of cooked brown rice in place of the meat. Perfect amount to fill 4 peppers. I always have lime-juice and a jar of grated fresh ginger on hand, which makes this very quick to prepare!
