Three Cheese Stuffed Poblano With Black Bean Sauce And Mango Pico De Gallo Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1 can black beans (drained), 2 diced plum tomatoes, 1/2 chopped small red onion and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro in a bowl. Add the juice of 1 lime, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon chopped chipotle in adobo sauce and 1 teaspoon honey and stir. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Broil tomatoes, onion, and garlic in a foil-lined shallow baking pan 2 to 3 inches from heat, turning frequently, until lightly charred on all sides, about 5 minutes for garlic, 12 to 15 minutes for onion and tomatoes (flesh should be soft). Alternatively, char vegetables in a hot well-seasoned griddle or cast-iron skillet over moderate heat.
• Core tomatoes and peel garlic, then purée both with onion and salt in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot ingredients). Force through a large sieve into a bowl, discarding solids.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a wide 4-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until just hot. Stir about 1/2 cup tomato sauce into oil (this reduces spattering) and, when bubbling vigorously, add remaining sauce and basil. Fry sauce, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Add grapes, plantains, and mangoes to sauce and simmer gently, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened and fruit is tender but still intact, about 30 minutes. Season sauce with salt.
• While sauce is simmering, preheat oven to 350°F.
• Pour sauce over stuffed chiles and bake, covered with foil, until cheese is completely melted and sauce is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine tomato, onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro and green onion in a medium bowl. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until evenly distributed.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the black bean sauce: saute onion with garlic, add black beans, chipotle and heavy cream; blend until smooth.
• For the mango pico de gallo: cut mangoes and all ingredients into small cubes, dress with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Roast and peel the poblanos. Shred cheeses and stuff chiles; warm up in the oven until cheeses start to melt.
• Serve with black bean sauce and mango pico de gallo.

Steps:

• BLACK BEAN SAUCE:.
• Saute onion with garlic.
• Add black beans, chipotle and heavy cream to the sauteed onions & garlic.
• Blend until smooth; set aside.
• MANGO PICO DE GALLO:.
• Cut mangoes and the rest of the ingredients into small cubes.
• Dress with lemon juice, olive oil, salt & pepper.
• Set aside.
• STUFFED POBLANOS:.
• Roast and peel the poblanos.
• Shred cheeses and stuff poblanos.
• Warm up in the oven, at 250ºF, until cheeses start to melt.
• Serve with black bean sauce and mango pico de gallo.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix the three cheeses in a medium-sized bowl.
• Prepare the peppers by cutting off tops and carefully scraping out the seeds with a knife (try not to poke holes in the peppers).
• Stuff each pepper with the cheese mixture, using the end of a spoon or your finger to pack the cheeses tightly.
• After all the peppers are stuffed, pour a small amount of the sauce into a baking dish (I use a 9"x9" dish), coating the bottom.
• Arrange the stuffed peppers into a single layer in the bottom of the dish (it's OK to lay a few on top if you run out of room in the dish).
• If you had any remaining cheese mixture left, you may sprinkle it on top of the peppers now or simply freeze it for next time.
• Pour the remaining spaghetti sauce on top of the peppers, covering them completely.
• Bake, covered, for 30-40 minutes, or until peppers are soft and sauce is nice and bubbly (it may take longer if the peppers have thick flesh).
• Serve with spaghetti or other pasta.
• NOTE: Measurements for the cheeses are approximate; you may adjust the amounts and types of cheeses to your own taste.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken, pat dry.
• With your fingers, gently separate the skin from the meat along rib edge.
• For stuffing, combine cheese, basil, oregano, and lemon-pepper seasoning.
• Stuff a little less than a 1/4 cup of the stuffing between the skin and meat of each breast.
• Place chicken, skin side up in a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
• Brush chicken lightly with oil.
• Bake in a 375° oven for 45-55 minutes or till chicken is tender and no longer pink.

Steps:

• Roast peppers. While they cool make sauce and pico de gallo. For the black bean sauce, saute onions with garlic on medium heat until translucent, add black beans, chipotle and heavy cream. Cook 10 minutes covered and blend until smooth. For the mango pico de gallo, mix mangoes, onion, cilantro, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper. Peel poblanos. Shred and mix cheeses together. Place poblanos on aluminum foil lined cookie sheet and stuff with cheese mixture. Place in the oven until the cheese melts. Serve with black bean sauce and mango pico de gallo. Ole.
