Shrimp-Stuffed Chiles image

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Vegetable oil
12 whole yellow chiles (guero chiles), or Hungarian wax or large jalapeno
1 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup finely chopped white onion
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup fresh lime juice, from about 2 large limes

Steps:

Pour enough vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet to come 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan and heat to 350 degrees F.
Add the chiles and fry, turning frequently, until golden brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain and set aside.
In a separate pan, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onions and saute until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the bell peppers and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Season the filling with salt and pepper.
Cut a lengthwise slit in each chile and carefully scoop out the seeds, leaving the stem intact. (For milder heat, carefully cut out the ribs.) Divide the shrimp filling among the chiles, then close, overlapping the sides of each opening slightly.
On a shallow serving platter, toss the cucumber, sliced onions, soy sauce and lime juice and spread out on the platter. Arrange the chiles, seam-side up, on top of the salad and serve.

Categories Cheese

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 chilies, fresh, medium size Anaheim chiles or 4 pablano chilies
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
3/4 cup small shrimp, uncooked and devained
2 green onions, sliced
1 (16 ounce) can green enchilada sauce
sour cream
cilantro

Steps:

Leaving stems on, slit chiles lengthwise down one side and under cold water, clean out seeds and ribs.
Mix shrimp, green onion and 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce.
Mix the sharp and mozzarella together.
In small saucepan, warm up remaining enchilada sauce and keep warm.
Stuff each chile with 1/4 of the shrimp filling and top with 1/4 of the cheese filling and pack down. Chile may be pulled open a little to pack filling. You should have about a 2" opening after stuffing so cheese is showing.
Place chiles stuffed side up in a lightly greased baking dish.
Bake, uncovered at 400 degrees until chiles are soft and lightly tinged with brown. About 25 minutes.
To serve: Top each chile with remaining enchilada sauce, a dollup of sour cream and chopped cilantro.
