Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cooking spray
1 cup crab cake mixture, reserved from Crab Cakes OR see recipe below
1/4 cup sour cream
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
4 poblano or green bell peppers, halved and seeded
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
12 ounces fresh lump crabmeat (or an equal amount of canned lump crabmeat)
2 tablespoons lowfat sour cream
2 1/4 teaspoons oats (regular or quick-cooking)
2 1/4 teaspoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Pinch ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine crab cake mixture, sour cream, green chiles, and cilantro.
  • Stuff mixture into halved peppers and arrange side-by-side in bottom of prepared pan. Sprinkle cheese over filling.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until filling is hot and cheese is golden and bubbly. Serve hot.
  • In a large bowl, combine crabmeat, sour cream, oats, bread crumbs, Dijon mustard, crab boil seasoning, oregano, and black pepper. Gently mix ingredients together, being careful not to break up crabmeat.

Tips:

  • Choose poblano peppers that are large and have smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Roast the poblano peppers directly over an open flame or under a broiler until the skin is charred and blistered. This will make the peppers easier to peel and will give them a smoky flavor.
  • Once the peppers are roasted, place them in a paper bag or plastic bag and let them steam for 10-15 minutes. This will help to loosen the skin and make it easier to peel.
  • When peeling the peppers, be careful not to tear the flesh.
  • To make the crab stuffing, use fresh lump crab meat. Avoid using canned or frozen crab meat, as it will not have the same flavor or texture.
  • Season the crab stuffing with plenty of Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Stuff the poblano peppers with the crab stuffing and bake them in a preheated oven until the peppers are tender and the stuffing is cooked through.
  • Serve the crab-stuffed poblano peppers immediately, topped with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

    Conclusion:

    Crab-stuffed poblano peppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and reheated when you are ready to serve them. With their combination of smoky poblano peppers, creamy crab stuffing, and flavorful toppings, these peppers are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
