2 Prepare the Zucchini
Line a bowl with paper towels.
Trim and grate zucchini directly into towel-lined bowl. Gather zucchini up in paper towels and squeeze out any excess moisture. Place grated zucchini aside and discard excess liquid. Zucchini quantity may vary, but total weight will remain the same. Don't worry; recipe instructions are not impacted. -
3 Start the Filling
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.
Add ground turkey and piri piri blend (use less if spice-averse) to hot pan. Stir occasionally, breaking up meat until browned, 3-5 minutes.Add grated zucchini and stir occasionally until turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 3-4 minutes. -

5 Finish Peppers and Finish Dish
After 16-18 minutes, carefully remove peppers from oven. Flip peppers and evenly divide filling between halves. Top evenly with shredded cheese. Peppers will be hot! Use a utensil. If peppers are too large to fill completely, fill 4 halves and roast 3-4 minutes longer. Remaining pepper is yours to use as you please!
