Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 fresh cubanelle peppers
1 chicken breast, cooked & shredded
1/2 cup grated reduced-fat Mexican cheese blend
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
8 ounces canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/3 cup chopped red pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
8 ounces original rotel, drained

Steps:

  • Put chiles on a hot grill or under the broiler, let skin blister and burn.
  • Turn chiles occasionally so they don't overcook or burn through to the flesh.
  • Wrap chiles in tin foil (or paper bag) for 10-20 minutes. The burned skin will flake off easily and the flesh will be slightly cooked by the steam.
  • Slit the side of each chile, remove seeds and veins.
  • Mix chicken, red onion, cilantro, red pepper, cheese, black beans, cumin, salt and pepper to taste. Stuff filling into the slits in the chiles.
  • Line bottom of pan with rotel, then layer open, stuffed chiles.
  • Sprinkle each with quesco fresco, mexican cheese and cilantro, melt in a 350ºF oven for 15 minutes.
