Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Heat broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick foil. Put peppers cut side down in pan; coat peppers with nonstick spray.

  2. Broil 12 to 15 minutes, turning once or twice, until lightly charred and soft.

  3. Meanwhile coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray; heat over medium heat. Add chicken and onion, increase to medium-high heat and cook 5 minutes, breaking up chunks of chicken with a wooden spoon, until chicken and onions are lightly browned.

  4. Add all but 1/4 cup enchilada sauce, 1 cup water, the barley, corn and cumin. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes or until barley is tender. Off heat, stir in cilantro. Spoon into pepper halves; drizzle with reserved enchilada sauce. Good with shredded romaine lettuce, avocado and tomato salad. Brightly colored bell peppers are a great source of antioxidants. We filled them with lean ground chicken and fiber-rich corn and barley.
