Notes
- Chose poblano peppers that are about the same size so the cook evenly.
- If you prefer soft and melt in your mouth stuffed peppers, then pre-bake the peppers before stuffing them for 10 minutes. And when they bake again with the filling, they will reach that texture.
- Today's recipe has pepper that offer a soft bite as that's our preference.
- When it comes to the filing, feel free to make it entirely vegetarian by skipping the cooked chicken. We love adding protein and using leftovers here.
- It's best of you can shred your cheese at home for this recipe, and almost every recipe.
- Use a combo or your favorite cheese.
- This recipe is best served with dollops of sour cream!
- Use cooked meat like those Ground Beef Nachos or even cooked lamb from those Lamb Tacos.
- Make it entirely vegetarian!
- Use a variety of cheese or use cotija for a salty and different variation.
- Change the seasoning blend to a chipotle spice, or add chipotle peppers to the filling.
- When ready, feel free to drizzle sauces over the peppers! Chipotle sauce, Poblano Sauce, Avocado crema, Sour cream, Nacho Cheese Sauce Recipe, Hot Pepper Sauce and more!
- They are definitely not classified as one of the hot peppers, however they do still have a level of heat. If you know the Scoville heat unit scale where bell peppers are a zero. The poblanos are 1000-1500, while jalapeños are about 3,000-8,000.
- We actually feel that all food especially veggies are always good for you! These peppers have about 15 calories each and no fat, so with the hearty stuffing they're nutritious and filling!
- You can absolutely freeze them! There are two ways to go about it. 1. Freeze the uncooked peppers with the stuffing, ready to bake. Seal well before freezing and then that, bake as usual. 2. Freeze the cooked and cooled poblanos, seal well and reheat when thawed.
- Best to reheat them in an oven safe dish at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes with a teaspoon of water. You can otherwise reheat it in the microwave too.
