POBLANO-AND-CHEESE-STUFFED PORK CHOPS



Poblano-and-Cheese-Stuffed Pork Chops image

Oaxaca cheese is mild and creamy with a great stretch; we like to think of it as the perfect marriage of mozzarella and string cheese. It helps cut the heat from the poblano pepper in this dish, while also adding a creamy texture without completely oozing out of the pork chops.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 small sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 large poblano chile pepper
4 ounces Oaxaca cheese, pulled into small pieces
1 scallion, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest, plus lime wedges for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 bone-in pork chops (8 to 10 ounces each; 3/4 to 1 inch thick)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Microwave the sweet potatoes 8 minutes. Transfer to a small rimmed baking sheet and bake in the oven until the insides are soft and creamy, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, char the poblano directly on a stovetop burner over medium-high heat (or broil the poblano), turning, until blackened in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, discard the stem and seeds and thinly slice. Combine in a bowl with the cheese, scallion, garlic, lime zest and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
  • With your knife parallel to the cutting board, cut a long slit into the meaty side of each pork chop going almost to the bone, 2 to 2 1/2 inches deep. Stuff the pork with the poblano mixture and season with salt, pepper and the cumin.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until well browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully add the chicken broth and transfer the skillet to the oven. Cook until the pork is cooked through but still a little rosy near the bone, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Divide the pork chops and sweet potatoes among plates. Cut a slit in the top of each sweet potato and squeeze the ends together to open. Top with the butter and season with salt and pepper. Top the pork with the pan juices and serve with lime wedges.

MEATLOAF WITH POBLANOS



Meatloaf With Poblanos image

I found this for the World Tour. This woman has a lot of great recipes: Patricia Wriedt - Mexico City - [email protected] and I must give her the credit! I altered her recipe just enough to be easier to read. She says, "Here are all the recipes I have write in English. I think some of them are not in correct English but I think the people understand this. Saludos, Patricia. " I did some research & found that cashews & pecans are native to Mexico so I think they would be good choices for '1/2c nuts'.

Categories     Meat

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs ground beef
4 poblano peppers
1/2 cup nuts
1 cup old bread, soaked in milk*
4 hard-boiled eggs
1 teaspoon black pepper
salt
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 teaspoon bay leaf powder
1 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • * Bread: put a piece of bread in a dish with some milk, the amount of milk the bread can absorb in one hour is enough(I think bread will absorb all it will in about 5 minutes!). Grind the bread in a blender adding the amount of milk it needed for to mix.
  • Poblanos: peel and devein the poblanos as usual, fry it in a little amount of vegetable oil.
  • Hard boiled eggs: cut the eggs in a cube pieces.
  • Meat: Mix the bread with the meat, spices, 1 egg and salt. Divide in two parts, put in a mold one part, then put the slices of poblano, the nuts and hard eggs, cover with the other half of the meat.
  • Cook in the oven at 350F for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Choose the right poblano peppers: Look for peppers that are about 6 inches long and have a deep, dark green color. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Roast the poblano peppers properly: Roasting the poblano peppers brings out their smoky flavor and makes them easier to peel. Be sure to roast them until the skins are charred and blistered.
  • Handle the roasted poblano peppers with care: The roasted poblano peppers will be very hot, so be careful when handling them. Use a pair of tongs or a kitchen towel to protect your hands.
  • Season the meatloaf mixture well: The meatloaf mixture should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to give the meatloaf a flavorful and delicious taste.
  • Stuff the poblano peppers carefully: Be careful not to overstuff the poblano peppers, as this can make them difficult to close. You should be able to fit about 1/2 cup of meatloaf mixture into each pepper.
  • Bake the stuffed poblano peppers until cooked through: The stuffed poblano peppers should be baked until the meatloaf mixture is cooked through and the peppers are tender. This will usually take about 30 minutes.
  • Serve the stuffed poblano peppers immediately: The stuffed poblano peppers are best served immediately, while they are still hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Poblano stuffed meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The poblano peppers add a smoky flavor to the meatloaf, and the cheese filling makes it extra gooey and delicious. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
