Directions
- Roast the peppers under a hot broiler until the cut sides are lightly charred and tender, then set them aside to cool.
- Slice the mushrooms thinly and combine with the chopped onion and minced garlic in a bowl.
- If using frozen shrimp, thaw and pat dry, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil, and cook the shrimp, mushrooms, onion, garlic, and Italian seasoning until the vegetables are tender and the shrimp are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Roughly chop the tomato and add it to the shrimp mixture, along with half the grated mozzarella; stir to combine.
- Fill each pepper with the shrimp filling and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top.
- Broil the stuffed peppers on the sheet pan until the cheese is golden, about 2–3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon, honey, salt, and pepper to make a simple vinaigrette.
- Toss the mixed greens with the dressing and pumpkin seeds to make a fresh salad.
- Remove the peppers from the oven and divide them between plates, then add the salad on the side for serving.
- Serve and enjoy.
Two tips
- Prep ahead: roast the peppers and chop the shrimp, mushrooms, and onion up to an hour before cooking.
- Leftovers: refrigerate components separately and rewarm the peppers in the oven before serving; you can also drizzle a little olive oil over the greens before serving if desired.
