Place the bell peppers in boiling water for three to four minutes. When finished, add a dash of salt to the inside of the peppers and allow them to dry upside down (the opening faced down) on a paper towel.
Once the ground beef is nicely browned, add in the water, rice, Rotel, soy sauce, oregano and crushed red pepper and allow the ingredients to simmer until the rice is done.
