Chorizo-Stuffed Poblanos

[Robert-R]

We love chorizo & we love poblanos - a match made in heaven & a treat on earth.

Sauteed (in olive oil) a small minced onion & some minced garlic.

Added 3/4 lb of chorizo.

Put that in a bowl & added cooked rice, seeded & diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, sour cream & cotija cheese.
Mixed it well & seasoned with salt & pepper.

Sliced the poblanos in half length-wise, seeded them, filled them with the mix & topped with pepper jack.

Put them in the Performer (mesquite for smoke). Cooked indirect over medium heat until the cheese melted & the poblanos softened.

Looking good...

¡Súper bien!


The "Mix":

1 1/2 cups cooked white rice
2 medium roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup Mexican crema, or sour cream
1/4 cup grated cotija cheese
Salt & Pepper to taste

Looks FANTASTIC Robert!!
I'll Bet a bundle they tasted AWESOME!

Question for ya...: you cut the poblano peppers in half length-wise, but I only count 11 half peppers. Shouldn't there be twelve?

Thanks, Jim. I ran out of stuffing.

Should have used large poblanos, but there were none. All they had in the grocery stores were on the small side.

Gorgeous, Robert! Think I'll add stuffed peppers to the to-do list, and this looks like the recipe to start with!
