From the sweet flavours of the roasted red pepper contrasted with tender pieces of shredded chicken and mushrooms, this recipe is perfect for a weekend lunch or a quick mid-week dinner.

You can also use the rice stuffing in other vegetables, such as a large onion or aubergine.

1 tbsp olive oil

150g chestnut mushrooms, sliced

250g pouch sun dried tomato basmati rice

50g California Walnut pieces, roughly chopped

200g roast chicken, shredded

  • Season to taste and stir in the parsley and 2-3 tbsp water.
  • Cut the tops off the peppers and remove seeds.
