Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Roasting the Peppers

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes or until the skins are blistered and charred. Turn them occasionally for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Preparing the Filling

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and chorizo. Cook until browned, breaking up the meat with a spatula, for about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    Adding Vegetables and Seasoning

    Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the meat mixture. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent. Stir in cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper, mixing thoroughly. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Incorporating the Cheese

    Stir in the Alejandro cheese until well combined with the meat mixture.

Stuffing and Baking

  1. 5

    Stuffing the Peppers

    Once the poblano peppers are roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Carefully peel off the charred skin and make a slit down the side of each pepper, removing seeds if desired. Stuff each pepper with the meat and cheese filling.

  2. 6

    Baking the Stuffed Peppers

    Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish and pour the enchilada sauce over the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.

Serving
