Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 anaheim chilies, chopped, seed removed or 2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chili peppers
1 cup chopped onion
4 garlic cloves (less for the timid)
1 tablespoon lite olive oil
1/2 cup monterey jack cheese, grated
3 tablespoons fine breadcrumbs

  • Season the pockets with salt and pepper.
  • Put about 2 tbsp in each steak pocket and secure with wooden toothpicks.

  • Spray the grill with oil and cook uncovered for 5 minutes, flip and continue cooking until they reach desired doneness (7-9 minutes more for medium).
  • Check after 5 minutes with a meat thermometer: med-rare 145°F, med 160°F, and well done 175°F.
  • Slide the thermometer into the middle on the top piece of steak from the side towards the middle of the steak.
