Spicy Smoky Rice And Corn Stuffed Poblano Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the poblanos on a baking sheet and toss with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Roast until they begin to brown and soften, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the corn on another baking sheet, brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Roast until slightly golden, 15 minutes; turn, add the scallions and roast 15 more minutes. Let cool.
• Cut a 2-inch slit lengthwise into each pepper, remove the seeds and open the peppers slightly. (Peel the skin, if desired.)
• Remove the corn kernels from the cob; add to a bowl along with the scallions, then scrape in the milk from the cobs using the back of a knife. Stir in the crema, cilantro, and the lime zest and juice. Season with salt.
• Spoon the corn mixture into the peppers. Sprinkle the filling with cotija cheese. Return the peppers to the oven and bake until the cheese is slightly golden, about 8 minutes.

Add rice to meat mixture., Cut peppers lengthwise in half; remove seeds. Place on a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan, cut side down. Broil 4 in. from heat until skins blister, about 5 minutes. With tongs, turn peppers. , Fill with turkey mixture; top with enchilada sauce and sprinkle with cheese. Broil until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes longer. If desired, top with cilantro.

Steps:

• Filling -- Mix the rice, chilies, corn, sour cream, 1 cup of the cheese, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a bowl and stir well until it is all combined. The inside of the peppers are also seasoned, so go lightly with the salt and pepper.
• Peppers -- Slice the pepper on top leaving the stem on and open it up so you can remove the seeds and the inside ribs. Be careful not to break it apart. Lay the peppers on a baking sheet lined with either foil or parchment for easy clean up. Season the inside of the pepper with a little salt and pepper and rub or brush the outside skin with olive oil.
• Stuff the peppers with the rice mixture and top with the remaining cheese.
• Baking -- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees using the middle shelf. NOTE: These can also be done on indirect heat on the grill. I like to put a small sheet of foil down on the grill so the outside of the pepper doesn't burn. You can always take them off the foil at the end of grilling to get some grill marks on the pepper if you want. Oven or grill, they should take around 20-30 minutes until tender, but not falling apart and the cheese is melted. TIP: I have found that letting the filling come to room temp works better than chilled.
• Serve -- This can be served so many ways. For lunch, or as a side dish as they pretty much compliment any main dish. Or serve them as a main dish for a lighter dinner with a bowl of black bean soup and a salad. ENJOY!
