CHICKEN STUFFED CHILES
You can make this as spicy and hot or as mild as you like depending on the enchilada sauce you use. We like it mild, so I use the kind in an envelope and mix it with tomato sauce and some extra chicken broth. Others might use the can sauce, or use the envelope kind but no added chicken broth, or make your own. Serve with Spanish rice and a salad to complete the meal.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven broiler. Brush peppers with oil and arrange on a baking sheet. Broil peppers 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until scorched on all sides. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and peel. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, 2 cups cheese, and 1 cup enchilada sauce. Cut a slit in each roasted chile pepper, and stuff each with about 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture (depending on size of chiles). Arrange stuffed chiles in a single layer in a large baking dish. Cover with the remaining enchilada sauce.
- Bake 35 minutes in the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven, until bubbly. Sprinkle with remaining cheese, and continue baking 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Garnish with olives and sour cream to serve.

CHEESY CHICKEN & CORN STUFFED CHILES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400. Cut a long strip out of one side of each chile, keeping the stem & tip intact. Remove the seeds. In a large bowl, toss the chicken, corn, mozzarella & salsa. Divide the filling among the chiles, place on a baking sheet. Roast until the chiles are tender & the filling is browned, about 25 minutes. In a bowl, whisk the sour cream, lime juice, & paprika. Drizzle over the chiles. Sprinkle with cilantro.
Tips:
- Select the Right Chiles: Choose poblano chiles that are firm, deep green in color, and have smooth skin. Avoid chiles with blemishes or wrinkles.
- Roast the Chiles Properly: Roasting the chiles enhances their flavor and makes them easier to peel. Roast them directly over an open flame or under a broiler until the skin is blackened and blistered.
- Handle the Chiles Carefully: Roasted chiles are delicate and can easily tear. Use tongs to handle them and be gentle when peeling and removing the seeds.
- Season the Chicken Generously: The chicken filling is the heart of the dish, so season it liberally with a blend of spices. Use a combination of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper for a classic flavor profile.
- Stuff the Chiles Evenly: Divide the chicken filling evenly among the roasted chiles. Make sure to fill them tightly but not too tightly, as the rice will expand during cooking.
- Simmer the Chiles Gently: Place the stuffed chiles in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover them with a flavorful sauce. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook the chiles until the chicken filling is cooked through and the chiles are tender.
Conclusion:
Chicken-stuffed chiles are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course, appetizer, or side dish. With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can create a flavorful and visually appealing dish that will impress your family and friends. Experiment with different types of chiles, fillings, and sauces to find your favorite combination and enjoy this classic Mexican dish.
