Step 1
Cut the stem end off each mini pepper and scoop out seeds with a small spoon.
Step 2
Mix cream cheese, cheddar, and parsley in a small bowl until combined.
Step 3
Spoon the cheese mixture into each pepper, filling it level with the opening.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~60 seconds.
Step 5
Place peppers cut-side down in the skillet without moving them for 4 minutes.
Step 6
Turn peppers over and cook 2 more minutes until the skins blister and soften.
Step 7
Serve warm. The cheese will still be creamy inside, skin crispy outside.
