BAKED BEEF CHILES RELLENOS CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place poblano peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Cook under the preheated broiler until poblano pepper skins have blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place blackened peppers into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 10 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef, chili powder, garlic, cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper, paprika, chipotle pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir until beef is no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add onion; cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes with green chiles; cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes more. Let beef mixture cool.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Run water over the poblano peppers to remove skins and discard them. Drain peppers on paper towels. Place a layer of peppers on the bottom of the prepared dish; place 1/3 of the beef mixture on top. Cover with 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend. Repeat layers twice more in the same order.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 35 minutes.

CHILES RELLENOS (STUFFED PEPPERS)

Steps:

• Place whole peppers over an open flame (gas burner) or under the broiler. Roast, turning frequently until evenly black and blistered. Remove from heat, place in a plastic bag, and let them sweat for a while. This will allow the skins to peel of easily.
• While the peppers are sweating, place the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until evenly browned. When beef is fully cooked, add the onion, garlic and tomato, and cook for a few more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Remove the peppers from the bag, and peel off the burnt skin. You may wish to wear protective gloves. Run peppers under cool running water to rinse away any burnt pieces. Make a small vertical slit in the side of the peppers, and remove the seeds and veins. Stuff each pepper halfway with the ground beef mixture, then fill the rest of the way with shredded cheese. Close the slits, and secure with toothpicks.
• Whip egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl until thick and fluffy. Add the egg yolks, and whip for a minute to blend in.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the stuffed peppers with a light dusting of flour, then dip them in the egg so they are fully covered. Carefully place in the hot oil, and fry on both sides until golden. Drain on paper towels, then serve on a large platter.

PAT'S FAMOUS BEEF AND PORK CHILI

Steps:

• In large heavy-bottomed Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until lightly crisp, stirring occasionally. Once the bacon is browned, add the garlic, onions, bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, chipotle chili powder, oregano, and smoked paprika and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook until the vegetables are tender and seasonings are aromatic. Add the beef and break it up with a wooden spoon. Once beef is broken up and beginning to brown, add the pork. Break up with wooden spoon like the beef, and brown, until no longer pink, roughly 4 minutes. Stir in the beer and beans. Toss together, then add the crushed and diced tomatoes. Turn the heat down to low and simmer for 1 1/2 hours. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper, if necessary. Transfer the chili to serving bowls and garnish with lime wedges, sour cream, shredded cheese, and sliced scallions.

BEEF & PORK-CHILE RELLENOS

Steps:

• Brown the ground pork and ground beef. Add, diced tomatoes, raisins, almonds, onions, cumin, garlic, cloves, rice, and coriander. Mix well, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. The water should be all absorbed, if not remove lid and cook until only moist, not watery. This can be done earlier than the rest of the steps, refridgerate if using within a day or freeze if longer. Thaw before using.
• The following steps must be done just prior to serving:.
• Because you are using fresh chiles, they must be peeled, as the batter will not adhere to the slick skins of the chiles/peppers. Do this by charring the chiles either over an open flame (use long fork or tongs over a gas burner) or under the broiler. Then steam them in a hot towel or a closed paper sack, and when they are cool enough to touch, remove the skins. Slit the chiles lengthwise and remove seeds and veins using a teaspoon, leaving the stem intact. Dredge the chiles in 1/4 cup of flour and shake off extra flour.
• Prepare the batter by separating the whites from the yolks. Beat the whites very stiff. Beat the yolks and fold into beaten whites. Fold in the 6 tbs of flour.
• To complete the rellenos, spoon the meat mixture into the chiles. Add some cheese. Dip the chiles into the batter and fry, at medium heat, in 1 inch cooking oil in frying pan at medium high, until light browned on both sides. Use slotted spoon to place chile in oil and to turn and remove.
• Serve with mild Picante sauce on top of Rellenos. (This can be purchased in any grocery store.
• Side dishes that go well with this are refried beans, Mexican rice and tortillas.

CHILE RELLENOS WITH GROUND PORK AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• NOTE: The pork and cheese mixture is enough to stuff 8 poblano peppers. Simply increase your peppers, flour, and egg according to how many peppers you will be stuffing. I usually just stuff 2 peppers and then we just eat the leftover stuffing in tacos but sometimes stuff 8 peppers if having guests.
• Roast your peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet at 425 degrees F for 20 minutes or until their skins start to blister and char a little bit. Turn them over halfway through.
• Put the peppers into a ziploc bag and keep it sealed for about 30 minutes to allow the peppers to "sweat".
• Meanwhile, cook your pork in a skillet until no longer pink then drain it and place in a mixing bowl.
• Put your cheese in with the hot pork and mix it around, allowing it to melt a little with the meat.
• After the 30 minutes, carefully remove the skins on your poblanos. (As much as you can without tearing up the pepper--it's o.k. if a little stays on.
• In the foil where your peppers were, spread out your flour.
• Cut a "T" shape (top of the "T" being at the stem of the pepper) into your peppers carefully and remove the seeds then lay them into the flour on their outsides.
• Put a little of the pork and cheese mixture into the pepper, sprinkle with tomatoes then close the pepper up and secure it with a toothpick.
• Beat the egg white in a medium bowl until stiff. Beat the egg yolk lightly in a small bowl then fold into the egg white and gently fold them together.
• Pour oil about 1/4 inch deep into a large frying pan. Heat the oil to about 365 degrees F. (doesn't have to be exact, just hot).
• Dip the stuffed, floured peppers carefully into the egg mixture to coat then lay them gently into the hot oil.
• Fry until golden brown and then turn with a spatula to brown the other side.
• Remove to a plate and serve with your favorite queso sauce or salsa!
