Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Coat insides bell pepper halves with cooking spray; place on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until slightly tender, about 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add 3 green onions and garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and cumin; cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes. Add chicken broth and orzo; simmer until orzo is cooked through but firm to the bite and broth is absorbed, about 11 minutes. Spoon chicken-orzo mixture into bell peppers; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 7 minutes.
  6. Heat 1 teaspoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter in the same skillet. Add portobello mushrooms and 1 green onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper; spoon about 2 tablespoons onto each stuffed pepper.
