Ingredients

10 servings

  • 10 cherry peppers
  • 1 (7 ounce) package mozzarella cheese
  • 5 slices prosciutto
  • 2 cups olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Core out peppers by cutting a circle, at an inward angle, around the stem. Remove tops and scoop seeds and membranes out, like a tiny pumpkin.
  • Cut thumbnail-size cubes of mozzarella, varying size a little bit to fit each pepper. Cut prosciutto slices in half. Wrap each half around mozzarella cubes and stuff into the open peppers.
  • Pour olive oil into a jar or lidded container. Stir in Parmesan cheese, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Whisk together well.
  • Add peppers to the oil mixture and seal the lid. Let marinate for 5 to 6 hours. Serve straight out of the jar.
