Jalapeños Rellenos (Stuffed Jalapenos) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 jalapenos
1/4 lb queso fresco (fresh Mexican cheese)
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup mint, chopped
1 small yellow onion, chopped

Preparation

Trim and discard stem ends of 8 jalapeno chiles (always wear rubber gloves when handling hot chiles). Scrape seeds and veins out of each chile with a thin-bladed knife.
Mash together queso fresco (fresh Mexican cheese), cilantro and mint leaves, and yellow onion. Stuff chiles with mixture, dividing it equally between them.
Saute chiles in a lightly oiled nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until soft and all sides are browned, about 15 minutes.
