Number Of Ingredients 12

2 dried mulato chiles
4 summer squash
1 Tb. olive oil
2 chorizo sausages
2 cups chard, de-stemmed and chopped
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. oregano
2 tsp. soy sauce
6 sprigs cilantro, de-stemmed and chopped
2 Tb. sour cream
1 tsp. agave
2 scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove stems and seeds of chiles and rinse inside and out. Soak in just enough hot water to cover (using a second bowl to keep chiles submerged helps) for 15-30 minutes. Blend in a food processor or grind with a mortar and pestle to make a paste. Cut off top third of squash, laying it on its side if it's a cylindrical variety like zucchini, or on its bottom if scallop squash. Scoop out center of squash, leaving a ¼ to ½ inch wall. Chop squash guts and top (if not a stem) into small cubes. Heat a pan with olive oil on a medium-high heat and add chorizo and squash. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally and breaking up sausage into small bits, then add chopped chard. After a couple minutes, add cumin, oregano soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of chile paste. Cook for a couple more minutes, until the sausage is browned and soft. Add cilantro. Spoon into hollowed-out squash and top with cheese, then place on cookie sheet. Bake in the pre-heated oven until filling is golden and summer squash is tender, about 30 minutes. Mix the rest of the chili paste with sour cream and agave, and top each squash with a dollop, then sprinkle with scallions and cilantro.

I served this dish with a side of roasted potatoes and a green salad. It was a complete and satisfying meal.

I roasted the summer squash instead of grilling it. It turned out great, and it was a lot easier to do.

I added a bit of cayenne pepper to the stuffing to give it a little kick. It was delicious!

I didn't have any chorizo, so I used ground beef instead. It was still very good, but I think the chorizo would have added a bit more flavor.

I'm allergic to chard, so I used spinach instead. It worked just as well, and the dish was still delicious.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chorizo. I had some leftover from a tacos night, and it worked perfectly in this recipe. The chard and summer squash added a nice healthy touch.
