   While that's cooking, start water boiling in a pot big enough to hold your four peppers.

   When the water boils, add your peppers.
5. 5
   Let them sit until they're just starting to get soft, about 4 minutes.

   Remove them from the water with tongs and let the peppers drain in a colander while you prepare the good stuff.

18. 18
    Crack the egg on top of the ground chicken mixture and stir it up well.

20. 20
    Using a soup spoon, add the stuffing into the peppers, making sure to pack it in tightly.

    If you like shredded cheese, top the peppers with that now.

    You can also add feta cheese right to the mix!

    Bake at 350F for about 30 min or until the peppers have gone somewhat wrinkly all over and your cheese is bubbly.
