Anaheim Chili Salsa Recipe 45

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
• Rub tomatoes with oil and grill for 10 minutes, turn. Place poblano, Anaheim, jalapeno chiles, and the green pepper on the grill. Grill 5 to 7 minutes per side, being careful not to let them burn. The skins should blister and brown. Remove tomatoes to a separate bowl. Place the chiles and pepper in an airtight container to let them steam while they cool so they're easier to peel.
• Peel tomatoes and drain excess liquid. Peel and seed peppers.
• Place the tomatoes, chiles, green pepper, cilantro, vinegar, onion, garlic, and salt in the container of a food processor. Pulse 4 or 5 times. Add liquid smoke and more jalapenos if desired. Pulse until salsa is as chunky or smooth as you like.

Steps:

• To roast chilies:.
• Place chile peppers on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.
• Broil 5 inches from the heat (with electric oven door partially open) 5 minutes on each side or until chile peppers are blistered.
• Place chile peppers in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; seal.
• Let stand 10 minutes to loosen skins.
• Peel peppers, leaving stems attached.
• Make a slit in the side of each chile, remove seeds, and stuff with cheese sticks.
• Dredge chiles with flour. Beat egg whites until they become stiff and peaks form. Beat yolks with water, 3 tablespoons flour and salt until thick and creamy. Fold the yolks into the whites and dip the chiles in the mixture.
• Fry in 2-3 inches of oil until they become golden brown.(I usually use about an inch and turn them over).
• Serve with your favorite salsa, refried beans and yellow rice for a great south of the border meal!
