Chili Rellanos (Hatch Green Chili) image

Chili Rellenos is another SW NM favorite of mine...If you like green chili and cheese you will surely like this recipe.. I can never get enough green chili.....Hatch green chili is the best...But you can use any poblano green chili..check for red streaks in your green chili, which is a sign that they are going to be...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

WHOLE GREEN CHILI
8 large green chiles, whole (roasted and peeled, seeds removed, leave stem on)
BATTER
4 large eggs, separated
2 Tbsp self-rising flour
2 Tbsp self-rising cornmeal mix
COOKING OIL
1/4 c cooking oil (hot)
CHEESE FOR STUFFING CHILI'S
jack, cheddar, or mexican melting cheese

Steps:

  • 1. WHOLE ROASTED AND PEELED GREEN CHILIES CHEESE CUT INTO LONG THIN STRIPS THAT WILL FIT INTO THE CHILIES. USE JACK, CHEDDAR, OR MEXICAN MELTING CHEESE
  • 2. Beat the egg whites until stiff in a medium mixing bowl. Beat the yolks in a separate bowl. Fold the yolks, flour and cornmeal into the whites.
  • 3. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a wide high sided skillet to about 375 F. Cut a slit in the chilies and fill with cheese. Dip each chili into the egg white batter and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry a few at a time, do not crowd the pan. Cook until golden brown, turning once or twice, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately. The batter can be doubled. This amount will coat about 8 chilies.
  • 4. Mix for another minute
  • 5. If you're not up for frying or need a great pot luck casserole, use the same batter over diced chili, cheese, and optional meat and throw it in the oven for half and hour. With a freezer full Hatch chili, you can make it anytime.
  • 6. Get 1/4 cup vegetable oil hot in a Dutch Oven Stuff poblano with strip of cheese Dredge stuffed chili in flour then batter Coat evenly, keep poblano closed Cook in hot oil, turning until browned Place on sheet pan in warm oven until all 8 are done
  • 7. You can serve them as is or you can smother them with a green chili sauce, or tomatillo sauce, or green chili enchilada sauce works too, some people like red sauce...or queso (cheese sauce) is good too.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili rellenos turned out really soggy. I think I might have used too much oil when frying them.

These chili rellenos were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best he's ever had.

I'm not a fan of green chiles, but these chili rellenos were still really good. The cheese filling was especially tasty.

These chili rellenos were amazing! The combination of the roasted poblano peppers, the creamy cheese filling, and the crispy batter was heavenly. I will definitely be making these again and again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chili rellenos didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I might have cooked them for too long.

The batter for these chili rellenos was a little tricky to work with, but the end result was worth it. The rellenos were crispy and golden brown, and the cheese filling was melted and gooey.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these chili rellenos were surprisingly mild. The green chiles added a nice flavor without being overpowering. I would definitely make these again.
