Chiles Poblanos Rellenos Al Horno Recipes

STUFFED POBLANO CHILES ("CHILES RELLENOS")

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.

CLASSIC CHILI POBLANO RELLENOS

Steps:

• Roast the chiles:.
• Roast the chilies by broiling three to five minutes on each side. The skin will begin to char and get black spots. Remove, cool a minute or two, then wrap in plastic wrap and let it sit five minutes. Remove the wrap and peel chilies.
• Keep the broiler on.
• Carefully cut a lengthwise slit into each chile and stuff with some cheddar cheese. Combine the flour, salt and pepper and dredge the chiles.
• In a large saucepan, heat 1/2" of shortening till very hot.
• Fold the egg yolks into the whites and working with 2 chiles at a time, dip the chiles into the egg batter and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown, no more than a couple of minutes. With a slotted spoon transfer the chiles (careful--they are delicate) to paper towels to drain.
• Arrange the chiles on a flameproof plate and sprinkle with sharp cheddar. Broil the chiles just long enough to melt the cheese.
• Serve immediately, accompanied by your favorite salsa. Enjoy!

CHILES POBLANOS RELLENOS

Steps:

• For the filling: Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Next add the onions and garlic; stir for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until the filling is dry, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the salsa ranchero: Heat the oil in a skillet until hot. Add the tomatoes, bell peppers, onions and garlic. Cook until the onions are browned, about 2 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes and simmer until the sauce is lumpy, 10 to 15 minutes.
• For the poblanos: Roast the poblanos over a gas flame, turning until blistered and slightly charred all over. Place in a heavy plastic bag and set aside for 10 to 20 minutes to steam. Scrape the skin off the poblanos. Carefully make a lengthwise slit in each poblano and remove the seeds and membranes; rinse and drain well, using paper towels to pat the poblanos dry.
• Stuff the poblanos with the filling and top with salsa ranchero. Before serving, garnish with shredded cheese and cilantro.
