Roasted Shrimp Stuffed Green Chiles - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
4 chilies, fresh, medium size Anaheim chiles or 4 pablano chilies
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
3/4 cup small shrimp, uncooked and devained
2 green onions, sliced
1 (16 ounce) can green enchilada sauce
sour cream
cilantro
Preparation
-
Leaving stems on, slit chiles lengthwise down one side and under cold water, clean out seeds and ribs.
Mix shrimp, green onion and 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce.
Mix the sharp and mozzarella together.
In small saucepan, warm up remaining enchilada sauce and keep warm.
Stuff each chile with 1/4 of the shrimp filling and top with 1/4 of the cheese filling and pack down. Chile may be pulled open a little to pack filling. You should have about a 2\" opening after stuffing so cheese is showing.
Place chiles stuffed side up in a lightly greased baking dish.
Bake, uncovered at 400 degrees until chiles are soft and lightly tinged with brown. About 25 minutes.
To serve: Top each chile with remaining enchilada sauce, a dollup of sour cream and chopped cilantro.
