Ingredients

1.0
1 cup masa harina flour 1.5
1 1/2 cup cold water 0.5
0 1/2 tsp salt 1.0
1 each cooking spray 2.0
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 2.0
2 oz Cheese, provolone, medium 1.0
1 each medium red bell peppers

Directions

In a medium bowl mix together masa harina, boiling water, and salt until well combined. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Wet your hands with cold water and separate mixture into 4 balls, and flatten with your hands into patties.
Spray a large skillet with cooking spray (or coat with vegetable oil) and heat it over medium heat until hot.
Place each patty in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until it browns and it puffs up a little and center is mostly set. (The middle will be a little soft like polenta).
Sprinkle top of each arepa with parmesan cheese
Slice each arepa open and fill with provolone and red pepper. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350°F oven until the cheese melts.
