Eggs & Bacon Chile Rellenos (Mexico)
(4 servings) Printable Version
- 8 large eggs
- 4 large fresh poblano chiles
- 4 slices bacon - chopped
- 1 medium tomato - diced
- 1/2 medium onion - diced
- 1 cup grated manchego cheese
- 1/2 cup canned tomato puree
- 1/4 cup cream
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
When all sides of the chiles are charred, wrap each chile in a warm moist paper towel. Let set for two minutes. The skin should come off fairly easily now. Peel the charred skin from the chiles.
Cut a slit nearly the full length of each chile. Remove the seeds and hanging membrane. Set aside.
In a large frying pan at medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Place finished bacon on stacked paper towels. Drain most of the bacon grease from the pan, leaving only about 1 teaspoon.
Return pan to stove top and add onion. Saute for about one minute until tender. Add tomato puree and cook for 2 more minutes - stirring occasionally.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a small mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the cream, cumin and salt.
Add the egg mixture and bacon pieces to the frying pan. Continue to cook - stirring often - until eggs are set.
Stuff each chile with equal amounts of the egg mixture.
Place chiles cut-side-down in a medium baking pan. Sprinkle grated cheese evenly over chiles.
Bake for about 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
Serve warm.
The poblano chile originated in Mexico near the city of Pueblo. "Poblano" means "pepper from Pueblo".
