Spicy Chorizo Stuffed Poblano Peppers With Cheese image

Fresh whole Poblano peppers blanched and stuffed with a spicy chorizo sausage, rice, and vegetable filling, covered in enchilada sauce and cheese and baked. Serve with refried beans and sour cream on the side... and you've got an explosion of flavor! I created this recipe after my husband planted jalapenos and harvested Poblanos... the seed company had labeled them wrong! A fortunate mistake in my opinion as these peppers are so delicious and this recipe really highlights their unique smoky flavor!

Categories     Pork

Time 30m

Yield 4 peppers, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 poblano peppers, medium to large
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb chorizo sausage, ground
1 pint brown rice or 1 pint white rice, cooked
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/3 cup water
1/2 lime
1 cup cheese, grated (a blend of your choice, cheddar, Mont. Jack, etc... I just buy the "Mexican" blend at the store)
1/2 cup enchilada sauce, plus more for serving (make your own or buy a can of mild green chile enchilada sauce)

Steps:

  • *If you can't find a package of ground Chorizo sausage, buy them whole and remove the casings before cooking.
  • In a large pan on medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Put the ground Chorizo in the pan, and break it all up so it can cook evenly. Stir occasionally and continue cooking as you work on the ingredients.
  • Meanwhile, start a large pot of salted water to boil.
  • While you are waiting for the water to boil, start preparing your Poblano peppers. Slice the tops off of the pepper, and scoop out the inner seeds. Discard the seeds, but save the tops of the peppers.
  • Add the Poblano peppers to the boiling water, and set up an ice bath ready on the side. After about 8 minutes, plunge them in the ice water.
  • Start another pan on medium heat with a tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Take the reserved tops of the Poblano peppers and trim off the stem and inedible parts. Mince the remaining pepper.
  • Add the pepper and chopped onion to the pan. Saute a few minutes, then add the chopped red bell pepper. Saute for a few minutes longer.
  • Next, add the rice, and mix all together. Stir in the tomato paste and water.
  • Add the cooked Chorizo sausage and stir well.
  • Season with salt and pepper or seasoning salt to your liking. Finish with a squeeze of half of lime.
  • Remove the peppers from the ice bath and shake off excess water. Have a 13 x 9 pan ready, and begin stuffing each pepper with the mixture. Lay the stuffed peppers in the pan.
  • Pour the enchilada sauce over all the peppers, allowing excess to drip into the pan.
  • Sprinkle cheese evenly over the tops of the peppers.
  • Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Serve with extra enchilada sauce, refried beans, and sour cream.
  • Enjoy!

POBLANO STUFFED WITH CHORIZO, SHRIMP AND RICE



POBLANO STUFFED WITH CHORIZO, SHRIMP AND RICE image

Categories     Pepper

Yield 6 peppers

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 pound Mexican-style chorizo
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 jalapeno, minced
1 red onion, diced
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 cup short-grain rice
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup water
4 large, fresh poblano chiles
1 pound shrimp, shelled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup Cheddar, shredded
3/4 cup Jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat oil and chorizo, cook for 3 minutes. Add peppers, jalapeno, onions and garlic. Cook until translucent, then add rice and cook until all the grains of the rice are coated with oil. Add all liquids and stir over high heat for 3 minutes, cover and reduce heat to low. Check rice for doneness after 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place poblano chiles on baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Once cool, cut top 1/4 of chile off and remove ribs and seeds. When rice is finished cooking, fluff with fork and stir in shrimp. Stuff chiles with 1/6 of the rice mixture. Place all the chiles on baking sheet and place into oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven, mix cheeses together and cover pepper with cheese. Broil for 3 minutes to melt and brown the cheese.

Tips:

  • To roast poblano peppers, place them on a baking sheet and broil for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the skins are blistered and blackened. Once roasted, place the peppers in a paper bag and let them steam for 10 minutes. This will make the skins easier to peel off.
  • To make the chorizo stuffing, cook the chorizo in a pan over medium heat until it is browned. Drain off the excess grease. Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper and cook until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the rice, tomatoes, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 18 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through.
  • To stuff the poblano peppers, cut a slit down the center of each pepper and remove the seeds and ribs. Stuff the peppers with the chorizo mixture and top with the cheese. Bake the peppers in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the poblano peppers with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or salad.

Conclusion:

Poblano peppers stuffed with chorizo, shrimp, and rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its combination of flavors and textures, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting recipe, give this one a try.
