Preparing Wild Rice & Italian Sausage Stuffed Peppers is an enjoyable task that will fill your kitchen with enticing smells. Follow these simple steps for an incredible dish:

1. Cook the Wild Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine the wild rice and broth. Bring it to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 45 minutes, or until tender. Drain any excess liquid if necessary.

2. Prepare the Peppers: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Arrange them upright in a baking dish.

3. Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink.

4. Add Vegetables: Stir in the diced onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

5. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked wild rice, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir until well mixed and heated through.

6. Fill the Peppers: Spoon the sausage and rice mixture into each prepared bell pepper. Pack it down gently to ensure they’re filled.

7. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of each stuffed pepper.

8. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden.

9. Garnish: Once cooked, remove from the oven and let the peppers cool slightly. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for added flavor.
