Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 poblano peppers
extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons minced onion
milk
1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
2 grinds fresh cracked black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 (16 ounce) package corn chips (such as Tostitos® Cantina)

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat (400 degrees F -200 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate.
  • Lightly spray or brush poblano peppers with olive oil. Cook peppers on the preheated grill, turning every couple minutes, until charred and softened, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove peppers from the grill and place in a large resealable plastic bag to steam, about 15 minutes. Peel off the charred skins. Discard seeds and chop peppers.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook for 1 minute more. Whisk in milk slowly and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add Monterey Jack cheese, cream cheese, salt, paprika, pepper, red pepper flakes, and cayenne; whisk until the cheeses have melted and are blended in, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped poblano peppers.
