POLLO CON RAJAS Y CREMA
There are many ways you can eat rajas in Mexican food. These peppers pack heat and yet are mild in flavor. The mild flavors of rajas allow you to use creamy and savory ingredients in this pollo con rajas y crema recipe. You can eat this dish alone as a meal or add side dishes to enhance the flavors. Since this dish has proteins, fats, and greens it is as balanced as it is delicious. You are not limited to chicken as proteins though and can make any changes you would like. Personally, I like substituting chicken with pork and cow meat sometimes.

Steps:
- During the first step of this pollo con rajas y crema recipe, it is important to gather all the ingredients in one place. Wash the vegetables and cut them to the appropriate size. If the peppers are pre-roasted, leave them to the side.
- Pre-marinate the chicken with your desired seasonings. Personally, I like using Sazon and onion powder. Shred the chicken finely. During this step in this pollo con rajas y crema recipe, you need to add olive oil to your skillet. Make sure that the heat is set to medium-low.
- Wait for the oil to start simmering and then add your chicken. Stir the shredded chicken in your skillet for a minimum of five minutes. Keep checking the color and temperature using a meat-safe thermometer.
- Add the cut vegetables, including the roasted poblano peppers to the skillet with your now cooked meat. In this pollo con rajas y crema recipe, it is important to add all the ingredients slowly and mix. The vegetables and peppers should brown and crisp in the skillet. Stir and move around the ingredients.
- After the vegetables are browned and crispy, you can add the wet ingredients to this pollo con rajas y crema recipe. The wet ingredients create a thick cream that brings flavor and texture to the dish. Do not add the shredded cheese. For this step, it is important to stir all the ingredients together.
- The fifth and final step for this pollo con rajas y crema recipe is to add shredded cheese on top. If you want to brown the cheese to add color and flavor, I suggest covering the raja y crema with a lid. Let the dish simmer for a minimum of five minutes. Turn the stovetop off and let it cool before serving.
POLLO CON RAJAS (CHICKEN WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS)
Steps:
- Cut chicken breasts into 1in. wide strips. Season them well with salt and pepper.
- In a cast iron skillet or heavy bottom (oven safe) pan, heat your butter and oil together. Once hot, quickly sauté the chicken filets until they are lightly browned. Set aside.

- Add the seared chicken along with any juices to the onion/poblanos and flip until evenly distributed.
- In a blender, combine sour cream, milk, 3 reserved poblano peppers, and salt until smooth.
- Pour sour cream mixture over chicken and gently mix until fully combined and all chicken pieces are covered.

Steps:
- Season chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Melt the butter and oil in a large skillet and saute the chicken lightly over moderate heat for 3 - 4 minutes on each side or until they are lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan. In the same pan saute the onion for 5 minutes until soft but not browned. Slice the chiles into long strips and add half of them to the pan with the onion. Add the salsa and cook over a low flame for 8 - 10 minutes or until the sauce is thickened slightly.
- Meanwhile, place the remaining sliced chiles in the blender with the milk and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Blend at low speed until smooth. Add the sour cream and blend again. Place half the chicken on the bottom of a 2 quart casserole. Cover them with half the onion-chile mixture and half the sour cream sauce. Repeat the layers.
- Mix the grated cheeses together and sprinkle on top of the chicken mixture. Bake uncovered in a preheated 350 F oven for 30 minutes. Serve directly from the casserole.
- Note that the amount of chiles in the recipe makes a mild/medium spicy dish -- add or delete chiles to taste.

POLLO CON RAJA (MEXICAN CHICKEN)
This is one of my Mom's favorite recipes. It is great. I love to make it with variations. Sometimes just with tortillas. Other days I make it into a burrito with yellow rice filling under the chicken.
