While not exactly a princess on the plate, this messy looking dish is simply strips of roasted poblano cooked with onion, cheese, and Mexican cream. Some people like to add bits of roasted corn as well.

Ingredients
  • 1 lb poblanos , about 6
  • 1 onion , sliced in half moons
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 3/4 cup crema mexicana , available at Latino markets
  • 3/4 cup oaxaca cheese (shredded), available at Whole Foods/Latino markets
  • corn , if desired

Instructions
  1. Grill poblanos over medium heat grill, until charred all over. This took me about 20-30 minutes, turning the peppers every 10 minutes or so.
  2. When the peppers are done, put them on a platter and cover with a bowl or plastic wrap for 5-10 minutes. This will steam the skins loose.
  3. Peel the poblanos and discard the skins.
  4. Slice in bite-sized strips.
  5. Grate the cheeses.
  6. Cook the onion in a large pan until softened.
  7. Add the poblanos, cheese, and crema.
  8. You may also add corn as well as any salt or pepper, as desired. Heat through.
Recipe Notes

Serve with chips as an appetizer or as a vegetarian meal over rice, in a tortilla, or enchilada.
