Como fazer Chiles Rellenos
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the chiles: Carefully slit each poblano pepper lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. Gently insert a strip of Swiss cheese (approximately 1-2 ounces) into each chile.
- Prepare the egg batter: In a medium bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until soft peaks form. In a separate small bowl, lightly beat 2 large egg yolks. Gently fold the egg yolks into the egg whites.
- Add 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour to the egg mixture and fold in until just combined.
- Prepare the frying oil: In a heavy saucepan or deep fryer, heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches of vegetable oil to 400°F (200°C).
- Coat the chiles: Lightly dredge each chile in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- Fry the chiles: Carefully dip each floured chile into the egg batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Gently place 2 chiles at a time into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Prepare the sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (undrained), 1 cup chicken broth, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Simmer the sauce: Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, and cook for 10 minutes.
- Assemble and bake: Place the fried chiles in a 13x9 inch glass casserole or baking dish. Pour the sauce evenly over the chiles. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake: Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the chiles are heated through.
- Serve: Garnish with sour cream and enjoy!
