This variation on chiles rellenos (stuffed chile peppers) uses leftover chicken as stuffing. We originally developed it with the carcass of a beer-can chicken (chicken given a barbecue rub and then roasted on a can of beer on a grill); another option would be a rotisserie chicken. We made this with poblano and Cajun bell peppers from our backyard garden; feel free to experiment with hotter peppers. Serve with a green vegetable and your salsa of choice.
