Notes
Store the leftover peppers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. They will begin to soften over time. To reheat you can air fry them for about 5 minutes to heat them or you can heat them in the oven until heated through. Air Fry Option: You can air fry the peppers. Preheat the air fryer, spray the air fryer with oil and then air fry at 375 degrees F for 6 to 8 minutes or until lightly charred and soft. Recipe Tip: Bring the goat cheese to room temperature because softens it and helps blend it more easily spices and herbs and makes it easier to spoon into peppers.
