Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Poblano Peppers with Sweet Corn and Cheese.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a sizzling 500°F (260°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil.
Step 2
This will make cleanup a breeze later! Next, place the vibrant poblano peppers on the baking sheet and give them a loving brush with a tablespoon of vegetable oil, ensuring they’re well-coated for that perfect roast.
Step 3
Slide the peppers into the oven and let them roast for about 20 minutes.
Step 4
After that, flip them over and continue roasting until the skin is beautifully charred and the flesh is tender, which should take another 20 minutes or so.
Step 5
Once they’re done, transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap.
Step 6
This steaming process will help loosen the skins, so let them sit for about 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 7
While the peppers are steaming, bring a pot of water to a boil and toss in the corn kernels.
Step 8
Cook them until they’re soft, which should take around 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Step 9
After the peppers have steamed, carefully peel off the charred skins, discarding the seeds and stems, and slice the peppers into strips.
Step 10
In a saucepan, melt some butter along with another tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.
Step 11
Add in the sliced onion and sauté until it’s soft and fragrant, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 12
Now, stir in the pepper strips, cooked corn, and a sprinkle of chicken bouillon granules, cooking everything together for an additional 3 minutes.
Step 13
Lower the heat to medium-low and gently stir in the heavy cream and grated Manchego cheese.
Step 14
Let this delightful mixture simmer until the cheese is melted and everything is beautifully combined, which should take about 5 minutes.
Step 15
Enjoy the rich flavors and the warmth of this comforting dish!.
