Ingredients

  • 3 large Poblano Peppers
  • 12 oz mild chorizo sausage
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and set aside on a baking sheet.
  • Add the chorizo to a mixing bowl (removing casing first) and add in the cilantro, cheese and egg. Combine using your hands until evenly dispersed.
  • Stuff each pepper half with the chorizo filling until all peppers are stuffed. It will average out to 4 oz per two halves of the pepper if you want to scale this recipe up or down!
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until meat is cooked through and cheese has melted.
  • Best stored in an air tight  container in the fridge up to 3 days. Enjoy!
