- 2. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
- 3. Chef's Note: This recipe calls for two large poblano chilies... that will put this in the hot category. If you want it a bit milder, use only one.
- 4. Remove the skins on the tomatoes by placing them into boiling water for 30 seconds, and then plunging them into ice water. The skins should slide right off.
- 5. Remove the skins from the poblanos by placing them under a broiler until the skin blackens, then place them into a paper bag until cool enough to touch. Then, peel off the skins, and use a paring knife to scrape off any stubborn bits.
- 6. Chop the tomatoes, and seed and chop the poblano chilies.
- 7. Add all the ingredients to a saucepan, over medium-low heat.
- 8. Cover and lightly simmer for 15 minutes.
- 9. Uncover, and simmer for an additional 15 minutes.
- 10. Place into a non-reactive container, and store into the refrigerator until ready to use.
- 11. PLATE/PRESENT
- 12. Use in any recipe where you would use Rotel tomatoes. Enjoy.
- 13. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
