                                          • Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
                                          • Preheat oven to 400 °F.
                                          • Cut peppers into quarters.
                                          • In a large pot, combine water and rice. Bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Once it begins to boil, reduce heat to low. Cover. Simmer for 12–15 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed into the rice. Remove from the stove. Fluff with a fork. Allow rice to cool for 5 minutes.
                                          • In an extra-large skillet, brown turkey on medium-high heat, about 15–20 minutes. Heat to an internal temperature of 165 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds. Wash hands after touching uncooked ground turkey.
                                          • Add cooked brown rice, green chili enchilada sauce, black beans, and taco seasoning. Cook for 10 minutes. Heat to 140 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds.
                                          • Remove from heat. Add cheese. Stir.
                                          • Stuff each quarter pepper with ¾ cup (6 oz) packed filling.
                                          • Spray steam table pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place stuffed peppers in steam table pan. Bake in the oven for 20–25 minutes. Heat to an internal temperature of 140 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds.
                                            For 25 servings, use 1 full steam table pan(12" x 20" x 2½") and 1 half steam table pan(10⅜” x 12¾” x 2½”).
                                            For 50 servings, use 2 full steam table pans(12" x 20" x 2½").
                                          • Serve 1 quarter stuffed pepper. Serve immediately, or keep warm at 140 °F or higher.

                                          • Tips for Soaking Dry Beans: 1 lb dry black beans = about 2¼ cups dry or
                                            4½ cups cooked beans.

                                            Overnight Method: Add 1¾ qt cold water to every 1 lb of dry beans. Cover and

                                            Tips for Cooking Dry Beans: Once the beans have been soaked, add 1¾ qt water for every 1 lb of dry beans. Boil gently with lid tilted until tender, about 2 hours. Use cooked beans immediately.
