Sometimes meals come in perfect packaging. This is one of those times. Here's a satisfying dinner packed into a bell pepper half for each serving. Chicken and rice are infused with umami from sun-dried tomatoes and the filling is bound by Parmesan and a bit of cream for cheesy goodness.

  • Place bell pepper halves on a large, rimmed baking sheet and lightly coat them with cooking spray. Bake until mostly softened, about 15 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, heat sun-dried tomato oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sun-dried tomatoes and onion; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, salt and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add chicken, rice and cream; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan and parsley.

  • Divide the chicken filling among the pepper halves (they will be heaping). Bake until the peppers are soft and the filling is hot, about 10 minutes.
