Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 392°F.

Step 2

Cut the tops off the peppers to create lids and carefully remove the seeds and membranes.

Step 3

Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the pasta, olive oil, quartered cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella, and finely chopped basil. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Place the peppers in a baking dish and fill them with the stuffing. Cover with the tops you cut off and bake for about 35 minutes, until the skin of the peppers starts to char.
