STUFFED POBLANO PEPPERS

Is this an accidental tribute dish for Bobby Flay or really one of my favorite new side dishes? The answer is: yes. Both are true. I started stuffing poblano peppers over the summer and found myself making the dish time and time again. Each time the recipe would change a little, grow, evolve. But the ingredients stayed basically the same. Poblanos are known for their heat, but are rarely celebrated for their glorious floral notes and great texture. This dish brings those lesser-known qualities to the forefront. This dish will blow the lid off the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts at the holiday table. May as well get rid of the green bean casserole because this is where it's at for Christmas 2015!

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

8 ripe Roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
6 medium poblano peppers, halved lengthwise, ribs and seeds completely removed
6 medium poblano peppers, halved lengthwise, ribs and seeds completely removed
12 sprigs fresh thyme
2 medium red bell peppers, seeded and finely diced
3 large cloves garlic, minced
3 medium yellow onions, finely diced
6 sprigs fresh basil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
12 ounces mozzarella, cut into 1-inch cubes
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs, toasted
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
4 to 5 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the tomato halves flesh-side up in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of the olive oil, the confectioners' sugar, red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Spread the mixture evenly over the tomato halves. Roast the tomatoes until tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over high heat and add half of the canola oil. When it begins to smoke lightly, add half of the poblanos and cook to tenderize without making them mushy. Using a slotted spoon, remove the peppers to a baking sheet, cavity-side up. Repeat with the remaining poblanos and canola oil. Season with salt and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and the thyme. As the oil heats, the thyme will fry and become crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the thyme sprigs, then season with salt and cool. Add the bell peppers to the same skillet and season with salt. Cook over high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the peppers brown slightly but are still slightly firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the peppers and transfer to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet, heat until it begins to smoke lightly, and add the garlic and onions. Reduce the heat to medium. Season with salt and cook until the onions are lightly brown and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the onions to the bell peppers.
  • Quarter the oven-dried tomatoes and add to the pepper and onion mix. Chop the basil leaves and stir into the filling along with the red wine vinegar and mozzarella. Pull the thyme leaves off the stems and add to the mixture. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan and melted butter. Stuff each pepper halfway with the filling, and then top with the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Heat the peppers in the oven to brown the tops, 10 to 12 minutes. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with the balsamic vinegar to serve.

HOW TO ROAST POBLANO PEPPERS | STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE



How to Roast Poblano Peppers | Step-by-Step Guide image

Want to make chiles rellenos? You're certainly not going to use a green bell pepper, so you need to learn how to roast poblano peppers. In this guide you'll learn 5 different ways to roast poblano peppers and how to use them in different Mexican foods.

Provided by MexicanMadeMeatless.com & Nancy Lopez-McHugh

Categories     Step-by-Step

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 whole poblano peppers
gas stove
metal tongs
plate
plastic wrap or a container with a lid or a plastic sandwich bag
knife
latex gloves (highly recommended for preventing chile burns)

Steps:

  • Throughly rinse each pepper to make sure to remove any dirt, use a paper towel or clean kitchen towel to pat dry each pepper.
  • Turn your stove on to a medium-high flame, carefully place two or three peppers directly on the burner and over the flame. You'll want to use the tongs to help arrange the peppers so that they don't fall off and to help ensure even heat/flame on each one. Slowly the Poblanos will get little blisters that will darken and make a little popping sound. You'll have to use the tongs to keep turning them so that the entire pepper is evenly charred on all sides. Do not leave them unattended because you want the other skin just to darken like in the pictures and not burn entirely and turn to ash.
  • Once blackened on all sides, remove from the flame and continue the same step until each pepper has been roasted on the flame. You'll also notice that the chile's flesh will feel soft, you want to make sure that it feels this way throughout.
  • After you have roasted all of the peppers, place on a plate and cover with plastic wrap or put them in a container with a lid, or put them inside of a plastic sandwich bag and seal. Now leave the chiles aside for about 10 minutes. Whilst they are inside any of these sealed containers they begin to release their heat as well as some natural liquid, this is what we call "sweating the chiles". The purpose of this step is so that all of those little bits of charred skin will easily peel away from the pepper.
  • Next you can place a "sweated" chile on a cutting board or plate and use a knife to gently scrape away the charred skin. Alternatively, you can use your hands to hold the pepper and with your other hand use your fingers to carefully pull away the charred skin. Either way works great, pick which ever is easiest for you.
  • Use a paper towel or a little water to remove any of the excess charred bits from the peppers.

  • To roast the poblano peppers in the oven, preheat oven to 400 degrees or set it to broil. Set the poblanos onto a baking sheet (aluminum foil will make for easy cleanup), and bake for 20-30 minutes, until the skins are blackened and blistered, turning occasionally to evenly roast the poblanos.

  • If using for stuffing, carefully peel away or rub off and discard the charred skins. Otherwise, simply peel, stem and seed, then chop and use as needed.
