Poblano peppers (fresh version of the ancho) can be as mild as a green bell or as spicy as a serrano. We also use them for Green Chili Stew and enchilada sauce.
Ingredients
8 large poblano peppers
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 medium zucchini, chopped
1 small red onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup cooked brown rice
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons ground ancho chili pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
3 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup sour cream
Directions
1) Broil peppers 3 in. from heat until skins blister, about 5 minutes. With tongs, rotate peppers a quarter turn. Broil and rotate until all sides are blistered and blackened. Immediately place peppers in a large bowl; cover and let stand for 20 minutes. This can also be done on an outdoor grill and the blackened peppers can be placed in a plastic bag.
2) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, coarsely mash beans; set aside.
3) In a large nonstick skillet, cook and stir zucchini and onion until tender.
4) Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
5) Add corn, tomatoes, rice, seasonings and beans. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Set aside.
6) Preheat oven to 375°. Peel charred skins from poblanos and discard. Cut a lengthwise slit through each pepper, leaving stem intact; discard membranes and seeds.
7) Spoon 2/3 cup filling into each pepper.
8) Place peppers in a 13x9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake until heated through, 18-22 minutes, sprinkling with green onions and remaining cheese during last 5 minutes of baking. Serve with sour cream.
