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.
