Stuffed Chiles With Turkey Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Cut peppers lengthwise in half; remove seeds. Place in a 15x10x1-in. pan coated with cooking spray., In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook and crumble turkey with onion, garlic and seasonings over medium-high heat until meat is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes. Cool slightly. Stir in tomatoes, cheese and bread crumbs., Fill with turkey mixture. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake, uncovered, until filling is heated through and peppers are tender, 20-25 minutes.

Steps:

• For the chile stuffing: Preheat a grill to high heat (you can also use a broiler if you don't have a grill). Place the whole chiles on the grill and cook until well charred and blistered, turning every 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and cover with plastic wrap so they "sweat," making them easier to peel. Let the chiles stand for 5 minutes before uncovering and using towels to rub off the skins. Discard the skins, remove the cores and seeds and finely chop the chiles. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the cheeses and stir together to form a stuffing. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the turkey cordon bleu: Make a horizontal cut down the length of the thin side of each turkey breast using a sharp thin knife. Open the breasts up like a book so the cut-sides are exposed facing up and the skin-side is down, with the "spine" of the chicken horizontal on your work surface. Sprinkle the turkey with salt and pepper.
• Lay 5 slices of the deli ham on each breast and trim the edges so the ham fits inside the breast and there is a small border around the turkey. Leaving this gap will ensure that when the turkey is rolled up it forms a nice seal and the stuffing doesn't ooze out everywhere. Divide the poblano-cheese stuffing in thirds and spread on each of the breasts evenly, leaving a small border around the edge. Starting from one side, tightly roll up the turkey away from you, stuffing in any of the filling as it tries to escape at the edges (it is important you roll it up this way, so when you make the slices in the finished roulade they are across the grain). Secure the roll with pieces of butchers twine every 2 inches to form a tight, even log. Repeat with the remaining breasts. Sprinkle the outsides with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat oil in a turkey roaster set across two burners on medium-high heat. Add the roulades and brown evenly, 3 to 4 minutes per side. When browned all over, transfer the whole pan of the roulades to the oven and finish cooking. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Transfer to a platter and allow the meat to rest to allow for carry-over cooking and the internal temperature to reach 170 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes. To serve, remove the twine and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Drizzle the pan juices over the top.
• Combine the honey and mustard and mix well.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Halve the peppers lengthways, then remove the seeds and core but keep the stalks on. Rub the peppers with a drizzle of olive oil and season well. Put on a baking tray and roast for 15 mins.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Fry the mince for 2-3 mins, stirring to break up the chunks, then tip onto a plate.
• Wipe out your pan, then heat the rest of the oil over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, stir-fry for 2-3 mins, then add the cumin and mushrooms and cook for 2-3 mins more.
• Tip the mince back into the pan and add the chopped tomatoes and tomato purée. Crumble in the stock cube and cook for 3-4 mins, then add the oregano and season. Remove the peppers from the oven and fill them with as much of the mince as you can. (Don't worry if some spills out it - it will go satisfyingly crisp in the oven.) Top with the cheese and return to the oven for 10-15 mins until the cheese starts to turn golden.
• Carefully slide the peppers onto a plate and serve alongside a pile of your favourite greens blanched, boiled or steamed.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slice off tops of bell peppers, remove seeds and discard. Chop up the bell pepper tops and place into a large bowl. Add rice or couscous, chopped meat, dried basil, parsley, chopped pepper tops, chicken stock and scallions. Toss to combine and season with salt and pepper. Stuff each pepper with filling and place in a square baking dish. Bake 45 minutes or until tender.

Steps:

• To make the salsa roja, add the tomatoes, sliced onions, smashed garlic, cilantro stems, pasilla chile and 2 cups of the chicken stock to a saucepan. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until softened, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer to a blender and reserve the pan. Blend the sauce until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to the saucepan and transfer the sauce back into the pan. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce to a simmer on medium heat and cook until reduced and thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the water, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt to taste to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and add the rice. Bring back to a boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork, then set aside.
• Put the poblano peppers onto an open flame on the stovetop and char until black on all sides, turning occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam until the skin pulls away, about 10 minutes. Using a clean kitchen towel, gently remove the skin from the pepper, being careful not to break the flesh. Cut a slit lengthwise down the center of one side of the pepper and remove the seeds and ribs.
• Heat a large saute pan with a little canola oil. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it starts to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the diced onions and cumin and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add the remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock and reduce by half. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large bowl and add the beans and cooked rice. Toss to combine, then spread onto a sheet tray to lightly cool for 10 minutes.
• Fill each pepper with 2 slices of Oaxaca cheese and some of the filling. Be careful not to overfill the peppers. Secure with toothpicks and season the exterior of the peppers with salt.
• Place the egg whites into one large bowl and the yolks into another. Whip the egg whites with a hand mixer until fluffy and they form stiff peaks. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and whip for another 30 seconds. Beat the egg yolks until the volume doubles, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of the flour into the whipped egg whites, and then pour in the beaten egg yolks. Gently whisk by hand to combine. The consistency should be light - if you use a hand mixer you risk deflating the mixture.
• Heat a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the canola oil and heat until it shimmers. Test the oil by dropping a small amount of the batter into the pan.
• Spread the remaining 1 cup flour onto a sheet tray. Dredge the stuffed peppers in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the egg batter. Lay the peppers into the oil and fry until golden brown, turning on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and carefully take out the toothpicks.
• To serve, spoon some of the salsa roja onto the bottom of each plate. Place the fried chile over the top. Garnish with jalapeño, queso fresco and cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• To char the chiles: Over a gas flame, char the chiles on all sides until blackened, placing them into a sealable plastic bag to sweat for about 10 minutes. Remove the chiles from the bag and, using paper towels, wipe off the charred skin from the chiles. With a paring knife, slice the chiles down the center just to reveal the inside, being careful not to fully cut them in half. With a spoon, scoop out the seeds and the vein, keeping the stem and the rest of the chile intact. Place the chiles in a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish and set aside for stuffing.
• To make the tuna filling: Combine the tuna, peas, corn and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• To make the pickling liquid: Cook the carrots in boiling salted water until just crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic and onions and cook until the onions are slightly cooked, but still crispy, 5 minutes. Add 2/3 cup water and the vinegar and bring to a simmer (see Cook's Note, below). Add the carrots, oregano and bay leaves. Simmer until the vegetables are crisp- tender and almost all of the vinegar has evaporated, 8 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• To stuff the peppers: Stuff the peppers with the tuna mixture. Place back in the baking dish; they should fit snuggly. Pour the warm pickled mixture over the stuffed chiles and allow to cool to room temperature. Cover and chill for 2 hours or overnight. Serve cold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 1-quart baking dish.

• Melt butter in the skillet; add flour, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth. Stream milk and half-and-half into the flour mixture while stirring; bring to a boil. Cook and stir the milk mixture until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Return turkey mixture to the skillet; add tomatoes and 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese. Cook and stir the turkey mixture until hot and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes; spoon into the bell pepper halves. Arrange stuffed pepper halves into the prepared baking dish; top with remaining Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and panko. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven until the peppers are tender and the filling is hot, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Switch oven to broil, remove foil, and cook peppers under the broiler until the panko is browned, about 5 minutes.
