Ingredients
- 6 hatch chile peppers or other mild chile peppers
- 16 Ounce cream cheese softened
- ¾ Cup smoked brisket Chopped of pulled
- 2 Tablespoons BBQ sauce
- 2 Tablespoons pickled onions or sauteed onions
- oil for frying
- 3 Cups tempura batter
- ½ Cup flour
Instructions
- If the chiles have not been roasted, roast them over a hot flame or a couple minutes per side under a broiler, then place in a plastic bag for 10 minutes. Peel the skin off of the peppers and cut a slit down the side. Remove the seeds and ribs from the inside of the peppers.
- Mix the softened cream cheese with the BBQ sauce, chopped brisket, and diced onions (if using).
- Fill the Hatch chile peppers with the brisket and cream cheese filling, then pinch to close. Place in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight.
- When you are ready to cook, make your batter per package or recipe instructions. Preheat oil in a pan or fryer to 350 degrees.
- Working in batches, dredge the stuffed chiles in the flour and then coat in the batter. Fry in the oil for about 5-6 minutes (2-3 minutes per side).
- Place the peppers on a paper towel lined plate to drain while you fry the other chiles.
- Serve with salsa and top with queso, additional BBQ sauce, or enchilada sauce.
