Shepherd'S Pie Peppers
- 2 large green bell peppers (about 1 pound)
- Cooking spray
- 6 ounces lean boneless leg of lamb or lean boneless sirloin steak, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
- 3/4 cup fat-free beef broth
- 2/3 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 1/3 cup chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 cup frozen mashed potatoes
- 1/2 cup fat-free milk
- 2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Dash of paprika
- Preheat oven to 400u0b0.
- Cut tops off bell peppers; discard tops, seeds, and membranes. Cook peppers in boiling water 5 minutes; drain and set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add lamb; cook 6 minutes or until browned, stirring frequently. Drain and pat dry with paper towels. Wipe drippings from skillet with a paper towel.
- Return lamb to pan; add broth and the next 6 ingredients (broth through salt). Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water, stirring well with a whisk. Add to lamb mixture; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Divide the lamb mixture evenly between peppers. Place stuffed peppers in an 8-inch square baking dish, and set aside.
- Combine the potatoes and milk in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring well. Microwave at HIGH 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute. Let stand for 2 minutes. Spoon warm potato mixture evenly over tops of stuffed peppers, and lightly coat the potato mixture with cooking spray. Combine the cheese and paprika; sprinkle over potato mixture.
- Bake at 400u0b0 for 20 minutes or until potatoes are golden.
