Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Growing up my mom made us stuffed bell peppers which were one my favorite childhood meals (I'm sure there will be a post about them soon). I found myself missing home this week and thought I'd try a new take on stuffed peppers that combined the concept that I loved with the Mexican food that I miss so much from home.

Ingredients

6 Poblano Peppers

Olive Oil

2 Cups of Mozzarella Cheese

1 Cup of Cheddar Cheese

3 chicken breasts

1 Package of Grape Tomatoes

3 TBS of Garlic

1 Red Onion Diced

2 TSP of Oregano

2 TSP of Cumin

2 TSP of Kosher Salt

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400° and bake the chicken breasts for 25 minutes. Then shred the chicken.

2. Heat the olive oil in a pan and add the tomatoes, diced onion, and garlic.

3. Add the oregano, cumin and salt and cook for 7-10 minutes.

4. Add in the chicken and cook for 10 minutes

5. Meanwhile rinse the poblano peppers and cut off one side of each.

6. Add the mozzarella and cheddar cheese into the pan with the chicken and veggies.

7. Stuff the peppers with the filling from the pan. Make sure you press on it to get the entire pepper full of filling.

8. Sprinkle the top with cheese and broil for 2 minutes so the cheese melts. Then serve and enjoy!
