STUFFED POBLANO PEPPERS
Is this an accidental tribute dish for Bobby Flay or really one of my favorite new side dishes? The answer is: yes. Both are true. I started stuffing poblano peppers over the summer and found myself making the dish time and time again. Each time the recipe would change a little, grow, evolve. But the ingredients stayed basically the same. Poblanos are known for their heat, but are rarely celebrated for their glorious floral notes and great texture. This dish brings those lesser-known qualities to the forefront. This dish will blow the lid off the sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts at the holiday table. May as well get rid of the green bean casserole because this is where it's at for Christmas 2015!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the tomato halves flesh-side up in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of the olive oil, the confectioners' sugar, red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Spread the mixture evenly over the tomato halves. Roast the tomatoes until tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over high heat and add half of the canola oil. When it begins to smoke lightly, add half of the poblanos and cook to tenderize without making them mushy. Using a slotted spoon, remove the peppers to a baking sheet, cavity-side up. Repeat with the remaining poblanos and canola oil. Season with salt and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and the thyme. As the oil heats, the thyme will fry and become crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the thyme sprigs, then season with salt and cool. Add the bell peppers to the same skillet and season with salt. Cook over high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the peppers brown slightly but are still slightly firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the peppers and transfer to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet, heat until it begins to smoke lightly, and add the garlic and onions. Reduce the heat to medium. Season with salt and cook until the onions are lightly brown and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the onions to the bell peppers.
- Quarter the oven-dried tomatoes and add to the pepper and onion mix. Chop the basil leaves and stir into the filling along with the red wine vinegar and mozzarella. Pull the thyme leaves off the stems and add to the mixture. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan and melted butter. Stuff each pepper halfway with the filling, and then top with the breadcrumb mixture.
- Heat the peppers in the oven to brown the tops, 10 to 12 minutes. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with the balsamic vinegar to serve.
STUFFED POBLANO PEPPERS
These aren't the stuffed peppers you've always known, and yet, we're sure you'll love them. Poblano chiles are dark green, triangular in shape and sweeter in flavor than bell peppers. Stuffed full of the veggies, Cheddar cheese, chicken and beans that this recipe calls for, poblanos get even better! And better for you, thanks to smart swaps-beans in place of rice and chicken in place of ground beef-that cut calories. But don't worry, less fat doesn't mean less flavor in this case, as these get cooked in a sauce that's zesty and easy to make-simply blend together an onion, Old El Paso™ chicken taco seasoning mix and Old El Paso™ enchilada sauce. Combining pantry staples with simple vegetables means this recipe is easy enough for a weeknight. So even if your standby recipe is our classic Stuffed Peppers , give this version a try, and you'll see why we think there's room for another stuffed pepper recipe in your repertoire!

STUFFED POBLANOS
Smaller and spicier than their bell-pepper cousins, poblanos are good for stuffing. The cornmeal, black beans, cheese, and aromatics make the perfect filling.
