Description

Pepper jack cheese gives this traditional Mexican dish a spicy new twist. Try it with a spoonful of sour cream on top.

Ingredients

  • 4 small poblano chiles

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 4 ounces pepper Jack cheese, cut into 4 equal pieces

  • 1/2 cup thick and chunky salsa

Instructions

Prepare grill to medium heat.

Keeping the stem intact, halve each pepper lengthwise; remove seeds and membranes. Brush peppers with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Stuff each pepper with 1 piece of cheese and 2 tablespoons salsa. Grill about 10 minutes, gently turning once, until pepper is tender, skin is cracked and cheese has melted.
