STUFFED AND BAKED POBLANO CHILES
These could be a heavy side dish, but we like them as the main course with a side of spanish rice and a salad. Feel free to make changes to suit your taste - this is fairly flexible. The filling also makes a good stuffing for zucchini! Prep time does NOT include roasting the chiles.

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!

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.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place peppers in a nonstick casserole dish. Insert a slice of Cheddar cheese and a slice of Monterey Jack cheese into each pepper. Spoon some ground beef mixture into each pepper. Place the remaining beef on top of the peppers, and cover with enchilada sauce. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and sprinkle grated Cheddar cheese on top of the peppers. Bake until peppers are bubbly and fragrant, another 45 minutes.

Steps:
- Sauce: Put the tomatoes, garlic and onion in a blender. Blend until smooth. In a medium saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Chile rellenos: Mix the cheese and oregano in a small bowl. Cut a slit through 1 side of the charred chiles and fill each chile with 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture. Close with toothpicks to hold the filling in place. In a medium bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. Add the egg yolk and continue to beat for about 1 minute.
- In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour in enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F. (If you don't have a thermometer a cube of bread will brown in about 3 minutes.) Dredge the filled chiles in flour until fully covered. Shake off any excess flour, then dip the chiles into the egg mixture, until well coated. Fry until golden brown and drain on paper towels.
- Arrange the chiles on a serving platter, spoon the sauce on top and serve.

Steps:
- Place whole peppers over an open flame (gas burner) or under the broiler. Roast, turning frequently until evenly black and blistered. Remove from heat, place in a plastic bag, and let them sweat for a while. This will allow the skins to peel of easily.
- While the peppers are sweating, place the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until evenly browned. When beef is fully cooked, add the onion, garlic and tomato, and cook for a few more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Remove the peppers from the bag, and peel off the burnt skin. You may wish to wear protective gloves. Run peppers under cool running water to rinse away any burnt pieces. Make a small vertical slit in the side of the peppers, and remove the seeds and veins. Stuff each pepper halfway with the ground beef mixture, then fill the rest of the way with shredded cheese. Close the slits, and secure with toothpicks.
- Whip egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl until thick and fluffy. Add the egg yolks, and whip for a minute to blend in.
- Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the stuffed peppers with a light dusting of flour, then dip them in the egg so they are fully covered. Carefully place in the hot oil, and fry on both sides until golden. Drain on paper towels, then serve on a large platter.

Tips:
- Choose the right poblano chiles. Look for chiles that are dark green, plump, and have smooth skin. Avoid chiles that are wrinkled, bruised, or have blemishes.
- Roast the poblano chiles properly. Roasting the chiles brings out their flavor and makes them easier to peel. To roast the chiles, place them on a baking sheet and broil them for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the skin is blackened. Once the chiles are roasted, place them in a paper bag and let them steam for 10 minutes. This will make it easier to peel the skin off.
- Use a variety of fillings. There are many different types of fillings that you can use for stuffed poblano chiles. Some popular options include ground beef, chicken, pork, cheese, and vegetables. You can also add spices, herbs, and sauces to your filling to taste.
- Be careful not to overcook the chiles. Poblano chiles are relatively thin, so they can easily overcook. Cook the chiles until they are just tender, but not mushy.
Conclusion:
Stuffed poblano chiles are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. They are perfect for a party or potluck, and they can also be made ahead of time. With a little planning and effort, you can make stuffed poblano chiles that are sure to impress your guests.
