Chiles Rellenos De Carne Y Macarrones Recipes

Steps:

• Char the chiles.
• Turn a gas burner on high. Char the chiles on the burner grate, turning with tongs (Marcela is a pro and uses her hands!), until blackened all over. Or char the chiles under the broiler.
• Let them soften.
• Transfer the charred chiles to a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and close. Let stand 10 minutes. The chiles will steam in the bag, making them soft and easy to peel.
• Remove the skin.
• Gently rub the chiles with paper towels to remove as much skin as possible. It's okay if a few flecks remain-they'll add flavor, so don't rinse them off.
• Open the chiles.
• Using a paring knife, make a slit across the top of a chile just below the stem, leaving the stem intact. Starting from the middle of the slit, slice lengthwise down to the tip of the pepper (cut through only one layer). Open the chile like a book and pull out the seeds and inner membranes. You may need to use a paring knife to loosen the top of the seedpod. Repeat with the remaining chiles.
• Prepare the sauce.
• Puree the tomatoes, onion and garlic in a blender until smooth. Warm the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the tomato puree and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally; the sauce will be broth-y. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
• Make the filling.
• Place the cheese in a bowl, then add the oregano, crumbling and rubbing it with your fingers to release its flavor. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
• Stuff the chiles.
• Fill each chile with about 1/4 cup cheese mixture. Fold in the sides to cover the filling, then thread 2 toothpicks across the seam to form an X. You will probably need to make a second toothpick X to secure each chile so the filling doesn't leak out when you fry.
• Mix the batter.
• Beat the egg whites with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Add the egg yolk and beat 3 more minutes.
• Batter and fry.
• Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
• Dredge: Pour flour into a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. One at a time, coat the stuffed chiles with the flour.
• Batter: Holding each chile by the stem, lower it into the egg batter to cover completely. Let any excess batter drip off.
• Fry: Add the chiles to the hot oil, 1 or 2 at a time; fry, flipping once with tongs, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Eat!
• Place a fried chile on each plate and pour the warm sauce over it. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• To make the tomato sauce for serving, put the tomatoes in a blender. Add the chicken broth, garlic, onion and 1 teaspoon salt and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer the sauce to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Carefully cut a lengthwise slit in each chile and scoop out the seeds. Stuff each with 2 to 3 strips of cheese (depending on the size of the chile), enclosing them tightly.
• Place the flour on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the chiles in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess.
• In a large saucepan, heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
• Using a hand-held mixer, beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Fold the beaten yolks into the egg whites, add 1/4 teaspoon salt and beat to stiff peaks.
• Holding the chiles by the stem, dip them into the egg mixture to coat completely. Add to the oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 2 minutes per side. With a slotted spoon, transfer the chiles to paper towels to drain.
• Place the chiles on each of 6 plates. Spoon the sauce equally over the chiles and serve.

Steps:

• Saute the celery in butter for three minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the eggs, bread crumbs, milk, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Add the sauteed celery and shrimp and stir to mix well.
• Stuff the mixture into the whole chiles and seal with toothpicks if necessary.
• Place the chilesin a deep, lightly buttered casserole dish, seam side down.
• Cover the dish and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
• Serve with beans and rice.
• **Note: For a stiffer filling, chop the shrimp into a paste in the food processor.

Steps:

• FOR THE CHILES:.
• Cook ground pork and ground beef in a skillet over medium high heat. Add onions and cook until tender. Drain fat from the meat and onions.
• Add salt, raisins, almonds, cloves, coriander, and garlic. Add enough stock to moisten; cook until thick. Reserve remaining stock for sauce.
• Roast chilies and remove outer skin. Slit each chile down the center, just enough to remove as many seeds as possible and fill chiles with meat. If desired, you can add some shredded monterrey jack cheese. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
• FOR THE BATTER:.
• Beat egg whites until stiff; beat the yolks until thick and then fold gently into the egg whites. Add flour and mix well; add salt. Using a large spoon, dip stuffed chiles into batter. Drop into 1/2 inch hot oil and fry until brown on both sides. Remove chiles and drain on paper towels.
• FOR THE SAUCE:.
• Brown flour in the shortening. Add beef stock and tomato sauce and cook 5 minutes. Pour sauce over stuffed chiles and serve.

• Prepara los macarrones como se indica en el paquete. Incorpora 4 Singles y revuelve hasta que se derritan. Entretanto, dora la carne con la cebolla picada en una sartén grande; escúrrela. Incorpora la mezcla de carne y el cilantro restante a los macarrones que preparaste; rellena los chiles restantes con esto. Pon los chiles rellenos sobre la salsa en la fuente para hornear; cúbrelos con la salsa restante. Tápalos.
• Hornea los chiles durante 25 min. o hasta que estén completamente calientes. Corta las rebanadas de Singles restantes por la mitad; ponlas sobre los chiles. Hornéalos, destapados, durante 2 min. o hasta que los Singles se derritan.
