Ingredients
1 Pound ground turkey, lean (93 percent lean)
1 Can (15 oz.) chili (no beans)
1⁄4 tsp of Salt
1 ½ cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 Medium coarsely chopped tomato
4 Chopped green onions
4 Big poblano peppers
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Heat the broiler. Cook the turkey in a frying pan over medium heat, crumbling the meat occasionally for 5 to 7 minutes until it is no longer pink; drain.
Heat through the chile and salt. Combine 1/2 cup cheese, tomato, and green onions in a mixing bowl.
Meanwhile, remove the seeds from the peppers by cutting them in half lengthwise. Brush with oil and place cut side down on a foil-lined 15x10x1-inch baking tray. Broil for 5 minutes at 4 inches from heat, or until skins blister.
- Turn peppers with tongs. Fill with the turkey mixture and the rest of the cheese. Broil for another 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Recipe Note
When cutting hot peppers, use disposable gloves to avoid skin irritation from the oils. Keep your hands off your face.
