Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the cooked rice, Italian herbs, tomato sauce, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes allowing the flavors to blend.
Place the halved and seeded bell peppers in a baking dish, cut side up.
Spoon the turkey and rice mixture into the bell pepper halves. Pack the filling gently but firmly.
Top each filled bell pepper with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the stuffed peppers cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Italian-Style Stuffed Bell Peppers!
