CHILE RELLENO BREAKFAST CASSEROLE RECIPE



Chile Relleno Breakfast Casserole Recipe image

Roast poblano chiles and Monterey Jack cheese are layered and covered in eggs before getting baked into the perfect breakfast casserole.

Provided by Tasting Table Staff

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1¾ pounds (12 medium) poblano chiles
1½ cups half-and-half
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
8 eggs
1 garlic clove
Nonstick cooking spray
2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
Boiling water, for baking

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler to high and line a sheet pan with foil. Line the chiles next to each other on the pan and broil, turning as needed, until the chiles are well charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let steam for 15 minutes, then peel and deseed the poblanos using the back of a knife.
  • Lower the oven temperature to 300°. In a blender, combine the half-and-half, flour, salt, eggs and garlic. Blend on medium until smooth.
  • Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and line with a quarter of the roast poblanos, followed by a quarter of the grated cheese. Continue this layering process until all the chiles and cheese have been used. Pour the egg mixture in to cover the chiles and cheese.
  • Place the baking dish in a roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with enough boiling water to come up halfway along the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the eggs begin to set, 30 minutes, then raise the temperature to 400° and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the eggs are fully cooked and the top is golden brown.
  • Let rest at room temperature for 15 minutes, then slice and serve.

  • Select the version you're making below and continue.
  • Full-on veggie version

  • Lay half the chilies flat in the bottom of the baking dish (about 6 chili halves). Lay four slices of bread over the chiles. Pour half the egg mixture over the top of the bread and chilies.

  • Grease two approximately 4" x 8'' baking pans/casserole dishes with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Sprinkle half of the sausage over the meaty version. Top each with about 1/2 cup of the egg mixture. Sprinkle about 1/3 cup of cheese onto each.

  • In the morning, uncover and bake at 325 degrees for 40 - 50 minutes, until the strata is puffy, golden, and no longer jiggles in the middle.
  • Serve with optional toppings if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chili Rellenos: Opt for fresh or frozen chili rellenos with a mild to medium heat level. Canned chili rellenos may have a stronger flavor and texture that can overpower the other ingredients.
  • Use Fresh Eggs: Fresh eggs will give your casserole a richer flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh eggs, you can substitute 1/2 cup of egg whites for every whole egg.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season your casserole well. A combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cumin is a classic choice, but you can also add other spices like chili powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
  • Don't Overcook the Casserole: The casserole should be cooked until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted, but not overcooked. Overcooked eggs will become rubbery and the cheese will become dry.
  • Serve Immediately: The casserole is best served immediately after it is cooked. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

This chili relleno egg breakfast casserole is a delicious and easy way to start your day. It's packed with protein, vegetables, and flavor, and it's sure to please everyone at the table.
