Stuffed Chiles with Wild Mushrooms and Cilantro Sauce
- 4 poblano chiles
- 1 pound fresh wild mushrooms (shiitake or oyster)
- 1 small red bell pepper
- 1 small green bell pepper
- 1 small yellow bell pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Cilantro Sauce, recipe follows
- Roast the whole poblano chiles over a gas stove burner or under the oven broiler until their skins blister.
- Remove immediately to avoid burning.
- Put the chiles in a plastic bag for approximately 30 minutes, then carefully peel skins off.
- Set chiles aside.
- (Optional: You may wish to make a slit in 1 side of each chile and carefully remove the seeds, leaving the stem intact.)
- Wash and dice the mushrooms.
- Stem, seed and dice the bell peppers.
- Saute the bell peppers in hot olive oil for approximately 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and cook over low heat for approximately 15 more minutes.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- With a sharp knife make a small opening in the side of each poblano chile and stuff it with the wild mushroom mixture.
- Pour some heated sauce on each plate and place a stuffed chile in the center.
- 2 shallots
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 pound unsalted butter, cut into about 1-inch cubes
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro leaves
- Finely chop the shallots.
- In a stainless steel or copper saucepan combine the shallots, wine, and vinegar and reduce over low heat until nearly dry, about 10 minutes.
- Whisk in lemon juice, then whisk in softened butter, 1 cube at a time.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and bring to a quick boil, whisking constantly.
- Stir in minced cilantro last.
- Variation: Omit the cilantro from the sauce and instead add 4 threads of saffron to the shallots, wine, and vinegar before reducing.
