Roasted Chiles Rellenos Bake
- 10 whole Medium To Smallish Sized Chiles And Peppers (poblanos, Anaheims, Sweet Peppers, Etc.)
- 2 cups Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
- 2 whole Roma Tomatoes, Sliced
- 5 whole Large Eggs, Separated
- 4 teaspoons Flour
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- Salsa, For Garnish
- Preheat oven broiler.
- Place peppers on a rimmed baking sheet and broil for 10-15 minutes.
- Turn peppers once or twice during roasting so theyre blistered all over.
- Peppers should be tender with lots of black spots.
- Place peppers in a paper sack or a bowl covered with plastic wrap.
- Leave them for about 10 minutes to steam.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
- When the chiles and peppers are cool enough to handle, peel their skins off.
- The 10-minute steam they had just then should loosen up the skins quite a bit.
- Dont worry about getting every piece of skin off.
- Just the stuff that comes off easily.
- Remove the stems, cut peppers in half and remove the seeds and whitish membranes.
- Lightly oil a 9x13 baking dish.
- Lay the chiles and peppers flat, covering the bottom of the dish in a single layer.
- Sprinkle with half of the cheese.
- Lay tomato slices over the cheese, then add the last of the cheese over the tomatoes.
- Separate the egg yolks from the whites into separate bowls.
- Whisk the yolks together with the flour and salt.
- Beat the whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, then gently fold the whites into the yolk mixture.
- Spread the egg batter evenly over the cheese layer.
- Bake for about 15 minutes until the topping is browned.
- Serve hot with salsa and a green salad.
- Serves 4-6.
