How to Make Chile Relleno Breakfast

  1. Roast poblano peppers until the skin is blackened and blistered (about 20 minutes, directly over gas flame or under a broiler). Place peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 10 minutes to steam. Once cool enough to handle, peel, seed, and remove stems.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 8 ounces of your chosen cheese(s) (shredded), 1/4 cup chopped fresh jalapeños (optional), 1/4 cup chopped black olives (optional), and 1 tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce (optional).
  3. Carefully fill each roasted poblano pepper with the cheese mixture.
  4. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  5. Place stuffed peppers in the skillet and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the peppers are heated through (about 8-10 minutes per side).
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
