Preparation
Step 1
Cook rice according to package directions. Cut pepper in half, and remove stem and seeds. Place hollowed-out peppers in a greased 8 x 8 inch baking dish. Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, cook sausage until browned, add onions, peppers and spices; cook until softened but not browned. Stir into the cooked rice and add the Parmesan cheese & corn, mix until well combined. Stuff the filling mixture into the hollowed-out peppers, using a spoon to press the mixture down so it's tightly packed into the pepper shells.
Bake peppers at 375 F for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and add mozzarella on top of each pepper. Put peppers back into the oven and bake about 5-10 minutes more, until cheese is melted.
