Ingredients
8-10 fresh peppers (Anaheim, Poblano, or Pasilla)
12-16 oz of Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack or other mild white “chewy” cheese
8 eggs (separated)
Flour
Salt, Pepper, and garlic powder to taste
¼ to ½ cup olive or canola oil for pan
Step 1 – Prepare Peppers
• Broil 8-10 peppers (lay them flat on a cookie sheet) until skins are seared, slightly blackened on both sides
• Score peppers on one side only• Gently open each pepper to rinse inside its cavity and
remove seeds (seeds will make chile rellenos hot and bitter)
• Cut cheese into rectangular strips (approx 1-1.5 oz. for each pepper) to fit into the cavity of the pepper
• Stuff cavity of each pepper w/cheese
Step 2 – Prepare Coating
• In medium sized bowl - whip egg whites to stiff peaks, then gently fold in yolks – set aside
• In a flat or shallow bowl or baking dish - mix 2 cups flour with salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste – set aside
Step 3 – Coat and Cook
• Dredge stuffed peppers, one at a time in egg then flour mixture, then again in egg and flour mixture to coat well
• Place stuffed/dredged peppers in sauté pan, lightly covered in olive oil, over medium heat
• Cook 4-5 minutes per side – until golden brown• Serve immediately • Top with your favorite guacamole – serve black beans on
the side!
