Steaming green peppers?

Question

How long do I steam the peppers for dinner ??

Answer 1

The University of Main Extension states that you should steam bell peppers for three to five minutes.  Here is more information:

Steam (whole) - This method is used with whole peppers before stuffing and baking them.  Choose peppers that have an even end and will stand up without tipping over.  Cut the tops off and remove the seeds and membrane.  Place peppers upright in a steamer ...  Steam for three to five minutes.  Drain well and pat dry before stuffing and baking.
