POLLO CON RAJAS Y CREMA

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.
