Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chorizo Poblano Peppers.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat, then add the chorizo.
Step 3
Sauté the chorizo, stirring often, until it’s beautifully browned and crumbled, which should take about 7 to 10 minutes.
Step 4
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the cooked rice, diced onion, 1/4 cup of taco sauce, shredded Cheddar cheese, and a sprinkle of ground cumin, ensuring everything is well blended.
Step 5
Next, take your halved poblano peppers and generously fill each half with the savory chorizo mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the stuffed peppers in a small casserole dish or pie plate.
Step 7
Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of taco sauce over the top of the peppers, then pour a bit of water into the bottom of the dish.
Step 8
Cover it loosely with aluminum foil to keep the moisture in.
Step 9
Bake in your preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the peppers are tender and inviting.
