Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Place the poblano peppers on the baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and charred. Turn the peppers occasionally to ensure even roasting.
-
Remove the peppers from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the peppers steam for about 10 minutes. This will make it easier to peel off the skins.
-
Carefully peel the skins off the peppers and make a small slit on one side to remove the seeds and membranes. Be gentle to keep the peppers intact.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the Monterey Jack cheese, cheddar cheese, corn kernels, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the filling.
-
Stuff each poblano pepper with the cheese filling, making sure not to overfill.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, flour, and milk together to create a batter.
-
Dip each stuffed pepper into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
-
Place the battered peppers back on the baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
-
Serve the Baked Chile Rellenos A La Arizona hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a side of salsa.
