Slice a pepper in half, and you instantly see why it’s ideal for stuffing. That hollow bowl begs to be filled with something creamy and savory. Sweet bell peppers are the go-to for many stuffed pepper recipes<\/a>, but look to the poblano\u2014its spicier, dark green cousin\u2014when you want something out of the norm.<\/p>\n These shrimp-stuffed poblano peppers feature a tangy stuffing made of shrimp, cream cheese and rice. Additional cheeses, aromatic vegetables and seasonings round out the flavors, and a crispy topping of bread crumbs and more cheese turns golden in the oven. That may sound like a lot, but this recipe comes together quickly and is mostly hands-off once you slide the peppers into the oven.<\/p>\n Although thick-walled bell peppers are popular for stuffing, poblanos work best in this Tex-Mex recipe<\/a>. Poblano peppers are large and sturdy enough to hug the filling, even after roasting, and they have a slight spiciness you don’t get from sweet bell peppers. It’s why they’re the pepper of choice for chiles rellenos<\/a>.<\/p>\n You can usually find poblanos near the other fresh chiles in a grocery store’s produce section. The freshest ones have shiny, dark green skin and lack wrinkles or spots. Pick up extra for other poblano pepper recipes<\/a>, like beef carnitas and chicken enchilada soup, which can be served with the stuffed poblanos or prepared later in the week.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Cut the peppers in half lengthwise. Remove and discard the seeds.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Poblano peppers aren’t the spiciest type of pepper<\/a>, but they still have enough capsaicin to be considered chiles. Wear disposable gloves to keep the peppers’ oils from burning your skin, and avoid touching your face while cutting them.<\/p>\n Place the peppers, cut side down, in an ungreased 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Brush them with 1 tablespoon of melted butter, and sprinkle them with freshly ground pepper and salt. Bake the pepper halves, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes or until they’re tender.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute the onion and celery in the remaining butter until they’re tender. Stir in the cream cheese until it’s melted.<\/p>\n Add the cooked shrimp, cheese blend, cooked rice, lemon juice, cilantro, onion powder and garlic powder, and heat them through.<\/p>\n Spoon the hot filling into the pepper halves. Place the stuffed peppers, cut side up, in an ungreased 15x10x1-inch baking pan.<\/p>\n Combine the panko bread crumbs, grated Parmesan and melted butter, and sprinkle the topping over the peppers. Bake them, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes or until the topping is golden brown.<\/p>\n These stuffed peppers taste better hot from the oven than as leftovers. If you need to store the extras, let them cool to room temperature and nestle them side by side in a shallow container large enough to hold them without tipping them over. Place the container, sealed tightly with a lid, in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n Although many stuffed peppers last in the refrigerator for up to four days, shrimp-stuffed poblanos have cooked rice in the filling, which shortens their storage window. Cooked rice<\/a> has a shorter shelf life because it’s susceptible to bacteria that can cause foodborne illnesses. The latest recommendations on storing cooked rice mean you should eat leftover shrimp-stuffed poblano peppers within a day.<\/p>\n Reheat shrimp-stuffed poblano peppers in a 350\u00b0 oven. Set the stuffed poblanos in a baking dish, cover it with aluminum foil and bake for about 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake the peppers for about five minutes or until the peppers are hot and the topping is crisp. You could microwave shrimp-stuffed poblanos in 30-second bursts instead, but the topping won’t be as crunchy.<\/p>\n Cook raw shrimp yourself for the best texture in stuffed poblanos. To cook frozen shrimp<\/a> straight from the freezer, buy them shelled. Thaw frozen shell-on shrimp overnight in the refrigerator, and then clean the shrimp<\/a> before you cook them, removing the shell completely.<\/p>\n For shrimp-stuffed poblanos, saute the shrimp in the skillet in butter before you cook the aromatic vegetables. Cook the shrimp over medium heat until they turn pink and opaque and curl into a C shape, and then transfer them from the pan to a colander to cool and drain. Chop them once they’re cool enough to handle.<\/p>\n Oven roasting is more likely to brown the skin than leave burnt-black spots, so you don’t have to remove the skin from poblano peppers before you fill them. Plus, poblano skin is thinner than other pepper varieties, whose outer coating can be bitter and tough. In the end, it’s up to you.<\/p>\n If you want to remove the skin, place the roasted pepper halves in a lidded container and let them steam until they’re cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Put on gloves to protect your hands from the chile oils, and pull off the papery skin. If it doesn’t come off with your fingers, set each pepper half on a cutting board, hold one end with one hand and gently scrape off the skin with a spoon’s edge or the back of a knife.<\/p>\n Kick off a Tex-Mex meal with shrimp-stuffed poblanos as an appetizer, either on their own or with grilled elote flatbread<\/a>. For lunch, serve the stuffed chiles alongside a Santa Fe salad<\/a>. To use the peppers in a salad, layer butter lettuce, thin rounds of red onion and avocado slices on small plates and top each with a stuffed poblano. Serve salsa and sour cream on the side. For dinner, make shrimp-stuffed poblano peppers part of a Southwestern spread. Nestle them into a bed of rice alongside Southwest smothered chicken<\/a>, or let the sauce on beef enchiladas<\/a> spill across them on your plate.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Shrimp-stuffed poblano peppers are packed with shellfish, cream cheese, rice and a Mexican cheese blend.

In fact she won an nationwide award for them. But this recipe I tried and it was awful. My grandmother used different, authentic mexican spices that were not used in this americanize recipe. The old recipe called for cumin and and a dash of oregano. The remaining seasonings were fresh, not dried or from a bottle, huge difference in flavor. Definitely do not use cream cheese, yuck, use the mexican Creamora cheese in a jar! And do not use Mexican blend cheese LMAO!!! Use authentic mexican cheese-Queso Manchego,Panela and Oaxaca...what a difference, like driving a Rolls Royce vs a Yugo!!! Then the shrimp should med size cut only in half as they will shrink. If you chop them up, you wont taste or see the shrimp!! Forget the rice, and use a handful of lentils beans(cooked) instead.The rice only grabs the flavor of all the seasoning's used. Finally forget the bread crumbs LOL, this is a latin dish!!! Either use mexican brand corn tortilla chips or fried up a few tortillas as chips. Then crumble the chip semi-fine for the topping of the casserole. When presenting your meal, serve the casserole in each person's dish , atop - first a lettuce leaf, then top the the serving of casserole on top of the leaf. Next top the casserole with Chunky Salsa but have it stream down the top of casserole to the leaf, next the same with sour cream, and repeat again so you have two streams each, 4 total around the casserole drip to leaf. Top it with avocado slices -3. A terrific presentation where you can taste every ingredient. The recipe in this add does not allow you to taste the various flavors as it is like a turkey stuffing, all mixed up like garbage.
