Tips:

  • Choose the Right Poblano Peppers: Select large, dark green poblano peppers with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid peppers with blemishes or wrinkles.

  • Remove the Poblano Pepper Skins Easily: After roasting, place the peppers in a paper bag or covered container for 10-15 minutes to steam. This loosens the skins, making them easier to peel.
  • Make a Smooth Poblano Sauce: Use a blender or immersion blender to create a smooth and creamy poblano sauce. Adjust the consistency by adding more or less chicken broth.
  • Season to Taste: Taste the poblano sauce and adjust the seasoning accordingly. Add more salt, pepper, or cumin as needed.
  • Serve with Desired Sides: Creamy poblano chicken pairs well with various sides, such as rice, tortillas, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
