Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the bread in a large bowl and set aside.
- Brown the sausage over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the onion and granulated garlic stirring until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add 2 cups of the broth and bring to a boil. Pour the mixture over the bread and cover for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the egg, basil, oregano, parsley, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. The mixture should be moist but still hold together, if not add a bit more broth.
- Cut the tops off the peppers (save for another use) and remove (and discard the seeds). Fill the peppers with the bread stuffing. Place the peppers standing up into a deep baking dish. Add 1/4 cup of water to the bottom of the pan and cover with foil.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and top with the mozzarella cheese (about 1 oz per pepper) and bake for 8 more minutes or until cheese is melted and golden brown on top.
