Poblanos Stuffed with Chipotle Turkey Chili Recipe

Prep: 35 min. Bake: 10 min.

Yield: 4 Servings

35 10 45

Ingredients

8 poblano peppers
1 package (20 ounces) lean ground turkey
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8-3/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 tablespoon minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
2 teaspoons adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro, divided
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Mexican cheese blend
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Directions

Broil peppers 4 in. from the heat until skins blister, about 5 minutes. With tongs, rotate peppers a quarter turn. Broil and rotate until all sides are blistered and blackened. Immediately place peppers in a large bowl; cover and let stand for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey, onion and garlic in oil until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the tomatoes, corn, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, salt, cumin, chili powder and pepper; heat through. Remove from the heat; stir in 2 tablespoons cilantro. Set aside.
Peel off and discard charred skins from poblanos. Cut a lengthwise slit down each pepper, leaving the stem intact; remove membranes and seeds. Fill each pepper with 1/2 cup turkey mixture.
Place peppers in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro. Serve with sour cream. Yield: 4 servings.

I make these stuffed peppers but differently and I have a problem. As a doctor you should know that high sodium in a diet is not a good thing. If you must use the canned prepared ingredients in the recipe do NOT add extra salt. Ingesting half your daily requirement of sodium in one serving of a meal is NOT A GOOD THING. Were it not for the addition of salt i would have given this recipe 4 stars. As it stands it stands where I put it. Talk to a nutrition and rethink the whole thing

Very delicious! I used ground beef instead of turkey and 2 chipotle peppers, which made it very spicy. My family loved it. Next time I will make it with Spanish rice.
