Filling and Beans

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Peppers

    Roast the poblano peppers over an open flame or in the oven until the skin is blistered and charred. Once done, place them in a plastic bag to steam for about 10 minutes, then peel off the skin and remove the seeds.

  2. 2

    Cook the Filling

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent. Add ground beef, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Peppers

    Fill each poblano pepper with the beef mixture and top with shredded cheddar cheese.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the relleno peppers over a bed of black beans and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy your Relleno Bowl!
