Finishing the stuffed pointed peppers with red rice and bacon - 20 minutes

Drain the rice and also drain the corn from the can. Heat the skillet and cook the bacon until they're crispy. Add the onion and garlic and after about a minute also add the rice and corn.

Season the filling with pepper and salt. Roast the pine nuts shortly in a dry skillet, immediately season with fine salt.

Drizzle the peppers with olive oil, pepper and salt and place them cut side down on the baking tray. Roast them in the oven for about 5 minutes.

Fill the pre-roasted peppers with the rice filling and top it off with grated cheese. Roast them in the oven for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese has beautifully melted.
