WHITE BEAN-STUFFED POBLANOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1/4 cup of the oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the cumin seeds and cook until they turn a medium shade of brown, about 1 minute max. Add the onions and coriander and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
• While the onions cool, mash the white beans with a potato masher or fork in a medium-size bowl until they have the consistency of chunky mashed potatoes. Add the salt, chile, garlic, lime juice, and cooled onions and mix well. Taste and adjust the salt if needed.
• Divide the filling evenly among the poblanos, using a small tablespoon to stuff the filling into each nook and cranny of the peppers.
• Arrange the stuffed poblanos slit-side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the poblanos have shriveled and wrinkled at the area around the slits and turned dark green. Serve garnished with lime wedges.
