Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 c shredded monterey jack cheese
1 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
2 can(s) 4-oz. chopped green chilies, drained
2 eggs
2 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp flour

Steps:

  • 1. Place half of the cheeses in a greased 8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle with chilies and remaining cheeses. In a bowl beat the eggs, add the milk and flour; pour over cheese. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes, or until set. Serve warm. Makes 16 servings.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Chilies: Select poblano peppers that are firm, smooth, and have a deep green color. Avoid peppers with blemishes or bruises.
  • Roasting and Peeling the Chilies: Roasting the peppers enhances their flavor and makes the skin easier to peel. You can roast them over an open flame, under a broiler, or in a hot oven.
  • Removing the Seeds and Veins: Carefully remove the seeds and veins from the roasted peppers. This will help reduce the bitterness and heat level.
  • Preparing the Filling: Use a combination of cheeses, such as mozzarella, cheddar, and cream cheese, for a rich and flavorful filling. You can also add cooked vegetables, such as corn, black beans, or zucchini, for extra texture and nutrition.
  • Assembling the Squares: Layer the filling between the roasted pepper halves and top with a crispy breadcrumb mixture. Make sure to press the squares firmly together so they hold their shape.
  • Baking the Squares: Bake the squares in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Conclusion:

Chili relleno squares are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. With endless variations and toppings, you can customize them to suit your taste preferences. So, gather your ingredients, fire up your oven, and experience the delightful flavors of these stuffed pepper squares. You won't be disappointed!
