Herb-Crusted Basque Stuffed Pepper

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: olive oil, garlic, yellow onion and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the scallions in a little butter until translucent.
3. Turn the heat up, add the stuffed pepper, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the black pepper along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
