As an emergency room doctor, I stay pretty busy. But when I'm home, I enjoy cooking dishes that are healthy yet full of flavor. Using two varieties of peppers in this dish really punches up the taste. —Sonali Ruder, New York, New York

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey, onion and garlic in oil until meat is no longer pink, breaking it into crumbles; 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.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°. 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.
  4. Place peppers in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted, 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro. Serve with sour cream.
