What is Cooked Meat with Red Pepper?

Cooked Meat with Red Pepper is a home-style dish of meat cooked with sweet, fleshy red peppers. In Turkish cooking, the ingredients are often simmered together in a pot or cooked in a pan until tender; the cut of meat and seasonings vary from kitchen to kitchen.

The pepper’s mild sweetness balances the savoury meat, and the dish can be served juicy or cooked down, depending on the method. It makes a filling main course with rice, bread or potatoes, while a fresh salad or plain yoghurt adds a lighter contrast. It is high in protein and relatively low in carbohydrates, with vitamin C contributed by the pepper. For a lighter version, use lean meat and keep added oil modest.
