Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Dinner Sept 18, 2023


Note: Nice way to use up some left over stuff from the Macho Salad


My poblano peppers were from my CSA, so they were smaller than what I get from a grocery store. They might have been equivalent to 2 peppers. But I did have leftover filling, 3 peppers is still probably a good choice.


Ingredients:

3 Poblano Peppers

1 cup 165g Rotisserie Chicken shredded or chopped

½ cup 72g Corn off the Cob

¼ cup 45g shredded (Sharp) Cheddar Cheese, separated in half

½ cup 122g Greek Yogurt

From a 7oz can Chipotles in Adobo Sauce

~90g adobo sauce

~40g minced chipotle peppers (optional)

1½ cup 125g Cornbread Croutons, 6 or so separated

Cherry Tomatoes chopped

Chives, finely chopped


To Taste:

Salt Black Pepper


Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)


Cut peppers in half and remove seeds


Prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease


Pre-bake peppers for 20 minutes


While poblanos roast, remove chipotle peppers from the adobo sauce


If using peppers, mince


Take the 6 or so separated croutons and crush into bread crumbs


Mix chicken, corn, half of the cheese, yogurt, adobo sauce, chipotle peppers, and some chives to taste together in a small mixing bowl


Add additional seasoning if needed


Add intact croutons and gently mix in


Heap chicken mix into half baked pepper halves


Top with reserved cheese and sprinkle with cornbread crumbs


Bake for another 20 minutes or until cheese has melted and bread crumbs are getting dark but not burnt


Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving


Top with more chives and the tomatoes





Final Notes:


Cornbread croutons were such a good part of this.


Any extra filling is great with rice





Served with "Mexican" Rice
