WHITE BEAN-STUFFED POBLANOS



White Bean-Stuffed Poblanos image

Find someone who looks at you the way my mom looks at poblano peppers roasting in the oven. She discovered poblanos a few years back, when she was perusing the grocery aisle for a spicy pepper that could work as a base for stuffed vegetables. She bought a few, threw them in the oven, and was thrilled with the result: smoky, earthy, and with a manageable but distinct heat. Part two of her big breakthrough: The first time she made them, she forgot to buy potatoes for the stuffing, so she subbed in white beans, mixing them with lots of garlic and cumin-coated onions. As it turned out, the white beans get even softer and creamier in the oven and absorb the flavors of the poblanos perfectly. File this dish under "recipes that look complicated but come together shockingly quickly." Also, the leftover white bean stuffing makes an excellent dip.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 small yellow onions, finely diced
2 tablespoons ground coriander (freshly ground is best)
One 15-ounce can great northern beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more if needed
1 small Indian green chile or serrano chile, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime), plus lime wedges for serving
1 pound small poblano peppers of roughly the same size (2 to 3 ounces each), slit lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1/4 cup of the oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the cumin seeds and cook until they turn a medium shade of brown, about 1 minute max. Add the onions and coriander and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
  • While the onions cool, mash the white beans with a potato masher or fork in a medium-size bowl until they have the consistency of chunky mashed potatoes. Add the salt, chile, garlic, lime juice, and cooled onions and mix well. Taste and adjust the salt if needed.
  • Divide the filling evenly among the poblanos, using a small tablespoon to stuff the filling into each nook and cranny of the peppers.
  • Arrange the stuffed poblanos slit-side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the poblanos have shriveled and wrinkled at the area around the slits and turned dark green. Serve garnished with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked rice or quinoa instead of cooking it from scratch, but adjust the liquid measurements accordingly.
  • If you don't have vegetable broth, use water instead. You can also add a bouillon cube or some dried herbs to the water for extra flavor.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling, such as chopped carrots, celery, or zucchini.
  • If you don't have fresh mushrooms, you can use canned or dried mushrooms instead. Just be sure to rehydrate the dried mushrooms according to the package directions before using them.
  • If you like a little bit of heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the filling.
  • To make the peppers easier to stuff, cut them in half lengthwise instead of crosswise.
  • Be careful not to overstuff the peppers, or they will be difficult to close.
  • Serve the peppers immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for later.

Conclusion:

White bean and mushroom stuffed bell peppers are a delicious and healthy vegetarian dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy vegetarian meal, give these stuffed bell peppers a try!
