Method

  1. Preheat the air-fryer to 180℃. Slice the tops off the peppers and remove the seedy core. Discard the stalks, then finely dice any remaining flesh from the top. Transfer to a bowl, then mix in the rice, tomatoes, antipasti, olives, salami and most of the parsley. 
  2. Spoon into the cored peppers and sprinkle over the cheese. Bake in the air-fryer for 10-12 mins until the peppers are tender and the cheese has melted. 
  3. Serve with salad on the side and remaining parsley sprinkled on top.

Tip: These stuffed peppers would also make a great side for grilled chicken or fish. Leave out the salami to make this vegetarian.
