Chili Rellenos
- 5 or 6 chili Poblano, looks similar to a bell pepper but darker green, thinner, and longer
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup pecans
- 1 eggs
- flour
- oil
- 1 can diced tomatoes or canned stewed tomatoes (Optional)
- Wash chili peppers well.
- Then blanch them or scald them over open flame to peel the outer layer of skin.
- Peel them completely. Cut a hole in the top of the pepper for stuffing them.
- Then scrape out the seeds inside, being careful not to get them on your hands -- they burn!!
- Let them cool.
- Meanwhile, brown the ground beef and add raisins and pecans to the meat, cooking it for just a few minutes.
- Then stuff the chili peppers with the meat mixture.
- Beat your egg and roll chili peppers in the egg.
- Then roll them in the flour and fry them in oil in a skillet turning them from sided to side until crispy on outside.
- Serve them covered in diced tomatoes or stewed tomatoes (some people eat them plain with no tomatoes).
