How to Make Rendez Vous Chilies Rellenos Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Roast 4 large poblano peppers directly over a gas flame or under a broiler until blackened. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam for 15 minutes. Peel, seed, and chop the peppers.
  3. In a large blender, combine the chopped poblanos, 1 (15 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, 1 cup of corn kernels, ½ cup chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 large eggs, ½ cup milk or cream, 1 teaspoon cumin, ½ teaspoon chili powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Blend until smooth.
  4. If using a large enough blender (at least 64 ounces), add 1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the blender and blend briefly to combine. Otherwise, proceed to step 5.
  5. Pour the blended mixture into a large bowl and gently stir in the cheeses (if not already blended in).
  6. Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan or a deep-dish pie plate (9-inch).
  7. Pour the chili relleno mixture into the prepared pan.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown.
