See cooking tips for instructions for Roasting Peppers.
Preheat oven to 425°F.
In a large bowl, combine the crab meat and the next 6 ingredients. Mix well, stuff the peppers and place on a slightly greased cookie sheet.
Cover with foil and cook in the oven until heated through and the cheese is melted.
Meanwhile, to make the sauce, heat the olive oil in a medium size sauce pan.
Add the shallot, onion, salt and pepper. Cook on high heat until onions begin to brown, stirring often.
Next, add the red bell peppers, chicken broth, chipotle and the cream. Heat through and reduce slightly.
While the sauce is heating, in a small saucepan, melt the butter.
Once melted, add the flour. Stir constantly and cook until you achieve a light brown color. Add to the sauce, a little at a time, until you achieve your desired thickness.
To serve, pour some sauce on a plate and top it off with a stuffed pepper.
