Roast the Poblanos
- Place the poblano peppers under the broiler, turning occasionally, until the skins are blackened and blistered on all sides.
- Transfer to a bowl and cover with foil (or place in a paper bag) for 10–15 minutes to steam.
- Once cool enough to handle, peel away the charred skins. Carefully remove the seeds while keeping the peppers mostly intact.
Prepare the Pork Filling
- Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion and cook until just softened, about 3–4 minutes.
- Add the ground pork and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Stir in the chipotle chili powder, chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Add the tomato powder and water. Stir well and reduce heat to low.
- Simmer for 20–30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Stuff the Peppers
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Fill each roasted poblano with the pork mixture and place in a baking dish.
- Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until heated through.
Finish and Serve
- Remove the peppers from the oven.
- Drizzle generously with warm queso blanco cheese dip.
- Top with diced red onion, charred corn, diced tomato, and fresh cilantro.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
For extra heat, add diced jalapeños to the pork mixture while cooking. The filling can be made a day ahead and refrigerated until ready to assemble. These peppers pair wonderfully with cilantro-lime rice, Mexican street corn salad, or a crisp green salad. Use Code: DEBBIE at the FoodSocial Market to save on your order.
