Sloppy Jose With Chorizo Charred Poblanos And Avocado Crema Food

SPICY CHORIZO STUFFED POBLANO PEPPERS WITH CHEESE

Steps:

• *If you can't find a package of ground Chorizo sausage, buy them whole and remove the casings before cooking.
• In a large pan on medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Put the ground Chorizo in the pan, and break it all up so it can cook evenly. Stir occasionally and continue cooking as you work on the ingredients.
• Meanwhile, start a large pot of salted water to boil.
• While you are waiting for the water to boil, start preparing your Poblano peppers. Slice the tops off of the pepper, and scoop out the inner seeds. Discard the seeds, but save the tops of the peppers.
• Add the Poblano peppers to the boiling water, and set up an ice bath ready on the side. After about 8 minutes, plunge them in the ice water.
• Start another pan on medium heat with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• Take the reserved tops of the Poblano peppers and trim off the stem and inedible parts. Mince the remaining pepper.
• Add the pepper and chopped onion to the pan. Saute a few minutes, then add the chopped red bell pepper. Saute for a few minutes longer.
• Next, add the rice, and mix all together. Stir in the tomato paste and water.
• Add the cooked Chorizo sausage and stir well.
• Season with salt and pepper or seasoning salt to your liking. Finish with a squeeze of half of lime.
• Remove the peppers from the ice bath and shake off excess water. Have a 13 x 9 pan ready, and begin stuffing each pepper with the mixture. Lay the stuffed peppers in the pan.
• Pour the enchilada sauce over all the peppers, allowing excess to drip into the pan.
• Sprinkle cheese evenly over the tops of the peppers.
• Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
• Serve with extra enchilada sauce, refried beans, and sour cream.
• Enjoy!

SLOPPY CHICKEN 'CHORIZOS'

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground chicken and chorizo sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Return meat to the skillet; add onion and butter. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic; saute for 30 seconds.
• Stir ketchup, broth, brown sugar, chile powder, mustard powder, hot sauce, salt, and pepper into the skillet until well combined; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 15 to 20 minutes. Add broth, 1 tablespoon at a time, if mixture looks dry. Serve on toasted pretzel rolls.

POBLANO CHORIZO SCALLOPED POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (170°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish with the butter.
• Add the chorizo to a large pan over medium-high heat and sauté until cooked through, 5-6 minutes. The chorizo will not change color, but it will give off a lot of red oil and become firm enough to break up with a spatula or wooden spoon.
• Transfer the chorizo to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving about a tablespoon of oil behind in the pan.
• Add the garlic, onion, and poblanos to the pan and sauté until the oil is absorbed and the onions are translucent and red, about 5 minutes.
• Add the salt, chorizo, and cream to the pan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cream thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
• Use a slotted spoon to remove the solids from the cream mixture and set aside. The infused cream should be the consistency of a thin gravy. If not, continue to simmer until that consistency is reached.
• Arrange a layer of potato slices in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with some of the chorizo mixture. Repeat with the remaining potatoes and chorizo mixture until the dish is full, finishing with a layer of chorizo and vegetables. Pour the cream sauce over the top and shake the pan slightly so the sauce settles to the bottom of the dish. Cover the pan tightly with foil.
• Bake for about 60 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
• Remove the dish from the oven and turn on the broiler. Uncover the pan, and scatter the Oaxaca cheese over the top. Place the pan under the broiler to melt and crisp the cheese, 2-3 minutes. Watch very closely so it doesn't burn.
• Let the scalloped potatoes rest for at least 15 minutes, then garnish with the scallions before serving.
• Enjoy!

POBLANO PEPPER SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• In a dutch oven or 12" heavy skillet put in your oil and set your stove to medium-low heat.
• Add the Red Skin Potatoes. Cook for 3-5 minutes stirring occasionally. You want the potatoes warm and slightly softened.
• Put in the rest of the vegetables and the salt and cook for 5-10 minutes or until most of moisture has cooked out of the corn. This should be a gentle cooking time so reduce heat to were you just hear the sizzle.
• Add the rest of the spices and let it cook for just a minute or two more to help integrate the flavors. If you don't have a Dried Chipotle Powder mix try the Southwest Chipotle Seasoning (recipe #162886) found on RecipeZaar.
• Remove the vegetables and set aside. Remember they're hot, so use an appropriate storage vessel.
• Brown the meat and drain off any fat or extra juice and discard the liquid.
• Bring back the vegetables to the pan and add the rest of the ingredients.
• Cook for 10-15 covered or until the potatoes are tender.
