Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 fresh Anaheim chile peppers
1 (8 ounce) package queso asadero (white Mexican cheese), cut into 3/4-inch thick strips
2 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup vegetable shortening for frying

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place peppers onto the prepared baking sheet, and cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 10 minutes. Turn the peppers often to blacken all sides. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 15 minutes.
  • Rinse cooled peppers under cold water to peel off the skins, and cut a slit along the long side of each pepper to remove the seeds and core. Rinse the peppers inside and out, and pat dry with paper towels. Stuff the peppers with strips of the cheese.
  • Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl with the baking powder. In a second metal bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until the whites form stiff peaks. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture. Place flour into a shallow bowl.
  • Heat the vegetable shortening in a skillet over medium heat. Roll each stuffed pepper in flour, tap off excess flour, and dip the peppers into the egg mixture to coat both sides. Gently lay the coated peppers into the hot shortening. Fry peppers until lightly golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes per side.

Tips for Making Chili Rellenos:

  • Choose the right poblano peppers: Look for large, firm peppers with smooth, dark green skin. Avoid peppers with blemishes or wrinkles.
  • Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their flavor and makes them easier to peel. Use a gas stove or broiler to roast the peppers until the skin is blackened and blistered.
  • Carefully peel the peppers: Once the peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly before peeling. Use a sharp knife to carefully peel the skin off the peppers, taking care not to tear the flesh.
  • Stuff the peppers evenly: When stuffing the peppers, be sure to distribute the filling evenly so that each pepper has a good balance of flavors.
  • Use a light touch when breading the peppers: When breading the peppers, be sure to use a light touch so that the breading doesn't overpower the filling.
  • Fry the peppers until golden brown: When frying the peppers, be sure to fry them until they are golden brown and crispy. This will help to keep the filling from leaking out.
  • Serve the peppers immediately: Chili rellenos are best served immediately after they are fried. This will ensure that the peppers are crispy and the filling is hot and gooey.

Conclusion:

Chili rellenos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your chili rellenos turn out perfectly.
