Poblanos Coloradito, Take Two

Okay, goal this time is to actually stuff the poblanos. (Last time they were too cooked from the roasting & we had to resort to sort of a high-brow mexican pizza.)

Did a few things different in the preliminary phases:

  • Used salt pork instead of bacon

  • Cooked dried pinquito beans instead of using canned

  • Added some white wine (actually did this the last time & forgot to document)

  • Remembered to move the rack up to broil the chiles--goal is to separate the skin from the flesh, but end up with chiles that still hold their shape.

  • Avocodo cream (garlic, cilantro, aguacate, cumin, salt)



To serve:

  1. Spread avocado cream on plate as a base

  2. Sprinkle beans over cream

  3. Stuff chiles with beef

  4. Top with chile sauce

  5. Top with sour cream & queso

  6. Broil chiles to melt cheese

  7. Server over avocado cream & beans

  8. Garnish with minced onion and cilantro
