Poblanos Stuffed With Corn And Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and beer in a bowl. Refrigerate batter 1 hour (it will puff while chilling).
• Place chiles directly over the flame of gas-stove burners on high heat. Roast, turning with tongs, until skins are charred and blistered. (Alternatively, broil chiles on a baking sheet, turning often, until skin is charred, taking care not to overcook. Otherwise, they will be difficult to peel, and flesh may be too soft to stuff.) When chiles are cool enough to handle, slip skins off.
• Leaving stem intact, cut a slit into the side of each chile. Remove seedpod, then insert a stick of cheese.
• Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add corn; saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon 1/4 cup of corn mixture into each chile, and close up with a toothpick.
• Heat 1 inch oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Dip chiles in batter, and fry in batches (do not crowd skillet) until golden, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Grease a 13-by-9-by-2-inch glass baking dish with butter. Set aside.
• For the crepe batter: Place all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. Let the batter stand for 30 minutes to allow any bubbles to settle.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the sauce: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the poblano chiles and cook for 1 minute to blend flavors. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until reduced and the cream coats back of spoon, about 6 minutes. Cool mixture slightly then transfer to blender and process until smooth. Season the poblano sauce with salt and pepper, to taste. Return the sauce to the same skillet and keep warm over low heat until ready to serve.
• Heat a 10-inch-diameter non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Brush the pan with oil (or spray with non-stick cooking spray). Add scant 1/4 cupful batter to the skillet; tilt to coat the bottom of the pan with an even layer of batter. Cook for about 30 to 45 seconds until golden on the bottom, adjusting the heat, as necessary, to prevent burning, Using a spatula, turn the crepe over and cook for 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Stuff each crepe with 1/4 cup of grated cheese and transfer to the prepared backing dish, fitting them snugly into dish. Cove the pan with foil and bake until cheese melts, about 15 minutes.
• To serve: Arrange the crepes on a platter and pout the sauce on top. Garnish with corn kernels, Mexican crema and chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the poblanos on a baking sheet and toss with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Roast until they begin to brown and soften, about 20 minutes.

• Cut a 2-inch slit lengthwise into each pepper, remove the seeds and open the peppers slightly. (Peel the skin, if desired.)
• Remove the corn kernels from the cob; add to a bowl along with the scallions, then scrape in the milk from the cobs using the back of a knife. Stir in the crema, cilantro, and the lime zest and juice. Season with salt.
• Spoon the corn mixture into the peppers. Sprinkle the filling with cotija cheese. Return the peppers to the oven and bake until the cheese is slightly golden, about 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Meanwhile on a gas stove on high or skillet heat chiles directly on flame until charred. Keep in plastic bag for 5 minutes. Peel chiles under cold water.
• Open on one side, remove seeds. Fill each poblano with 3 strips of the cheese. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons shredded mozarella cheese on each chile. Place in 9x13-inch glass baking dish.
• Bake chiles 15 to 20 minutes or until cheeses are melted and chiles are soft.
• Meanwhile, make tomato sauce. Place all sauce ingredients in food processor bowl or blender; process until smooth. Pour sauce into 2 quart saucepan. Cook over medium high heat about 15 minutes or until sauce is slightly reduced and dark red.
• To serve, place tomato sauce on plate; top with stuffed poblano chile. Drizzle with mexican style cream.

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Coat both a large baking sheet and a 9 x15 baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place poblano on baking sheet and broil 5 inches from heat for 15 to 20 minutes, turning often to char evenly. Transfer to a bowl, cover and let cool 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat butter and oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add scallions and garlic; cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often, to wilt scallions. Add corn; cook 2 to 3 minutes then add cilantro. Remove from heat and stir in farmer cheese and salt.
• Heat oven to 350*F. Carefully remove the loosened chard skin from the poblanos. Cut in half lengthwise; remove core and seeds. Arrange poblano in baking dish in single layer. Fill each with about 1/2 cup corn mixture.
• Bake 10 minutes, top with Cheddar cheese and bake 5 minutes to melt cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on the stovetop over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup butter and allow to melt while you begin to prepare the batter. Reserve the melted butter for later use, carefully wipe out the pan and place in the oven to heat.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, combine the milk, buttermilk, egg and melted butter. Make a well in the dry ingredients and gradually incorporate the wet mixture, stirring until the lumps are dissolved. Fold in the cheese, corn and poblanos.
• To bake the cornbread, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter so it sizzles. Coat the pan with the butter and quickly pour the cornbread batter into the skillet. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Microwave the sweet potatoes 8 minutes. Transfer to a small rimmed baking sheet and bake in the oven until the insides are soft and creamy, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, char the poblano directly on a stovetop burner over medium-high heat (or broil the poblano), turning, until blackened in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, discard the stem and seeds and thinly slice. Combine in a bowl with the cheese, scallion, garlic, lime zest and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• With your knife parallel to the cutting board, cut a long slit into the meaty side of each pork chop going almost to the bone, 2 to 2 1/2 inches deep. Stuff the pork with the poblano mixture and season with salt, pepper and the cumin.
• Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until well browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully add the chicken broth and transfer the skillet to the oven. Cook until the pork is cooked through but still a little rosy near the bone, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Divide the pork chops and sweet potatoes among plates. Cut a slit in the top of each sweet potato and squeeze the ends together to open. Top with the butter and season with salt and pepper. Top the pork with the pan juices and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack about 4 inches from the broiler and heat the broiler on high. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Slit the chiles from stem to tip and set on the baking sheet. Broil, turning every few minutes, until blackened all over, 5 to 8 minutes. Let cool slightly, peel off the skins, and cut out the seed cores, leaving the stems on. Turn the chiles inside out, flick out any remaining seeds, and turn right side out. Return the poblanos to the baking sheet.
• Purée the tomatoes, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoons salt in a food processor. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the purée and cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid has evaporated and the mixture looks thick and pulpy, 8 to 11 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the chicken and rice, and then 1 cup of the cheese, the cilantro, and the lime juice. Season to taste with salt. Divide the filling among the peppers, wrapping the sides of the peppers up and around the filling, some of which will still be exposed.
• Broil the peppers until the cheese is melting and the top is beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Top with the remaining 1 cup cheese and broil until the cheese is completely melted, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Place rice in a colander or a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear. Combine rice, water, and 3/4 teaspoon of the salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover the pan and reduce heat to low; cook until water has been completely absorbed, about 10 minutes (rice will be slightly undercooked). Remove the lid and set the pan aside to let rice cool.
• To prepare peppers for stuffing, use a paring knife to cut a wide circle around each stem (like when carving a jack-o'-lantern), so you end up with a cap that can be replaced once you've stuffed the peppers. Be careful not to puncture or rip the peppers. Clean any seeds and membranes from the cap and from the interior of each pepper; set aside.
• Place beans in a large mixing bowl. Using a potato masher or the back of a fork, lightly mash them (some whole beans will remain). Stir cumin, sour cream, Cotija, cilantro, tomatoes, green onions, pepper, chorizo (if using) and remaining salt into mashed beans and mix until evenly combined. Gently mix in cooled rice. Taste mixture and, if necessary, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (Note that the filling should be quite salty to compensate for there being no salt on the peppers.).
• Divide rice mixture into 6 equal portions. Stuff each pepper with the filling and replace each cap, pressing caps into the stuffing so the peppers remain closed while on the grill; set aside until ready to cook. (If you're stuffing the peppers more than 30 minutes before grilling, cover and refrigerate them. Let peppers sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes before grilling so that they cook faster and more evenly.).
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium heat (about 350°). Once the grill is heated, place stuffed peppers on their sides and close the lid. Roll each pepper a quarter turn every 7 minutes or so to cook all four sides. The peppers are finished once the filling is hot, the skins are well-charred, and the flesh is soft to the touch, about 30 minutes. If serving as a side dish, slice peppers in half lengthwise and place over prepared "red sauce", if desired.
• Optional Red Sauce: In a small sauce pan add 1 chopped tomato, 1 tablespoon of cilantro, 3 pinches kosher salt, 1 pinch black pepper, 1 T white wine vinegar, 1/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Bring to a boil for about 4 to 5 minutes. Next seed and chop 1 medium red bell pepper. Lastly, add the heated tomato mixture and the raw red pepper to a blender and pureed until smooth. Salt and pepper to taste. Pour on the bottom of the plate and place stuffed poblano on top.
• Note: How to microwave basmatic rice: Place 1 cup rice and 2 cups water in a microwave safe round 2 quart bowl with lid. Cook covered on high for 5 minutes. Reduce power setting to 50% and cook an additional 15 minutes. Let sit a few minutes, then remove lid and fluff with fork.
