Poblano chiles grown in a hot, dry climate can be more intense than others, so the spiciness of this dish depends on the heat of your peppers. Ingredients:
4 medium poblano chiles, halved and seeded |
1 (16-ounce) can fat-free refried beans |
1 (8.8-ounce) pouch microwaveable cooked long-grain rice (such as uncle ben's original ready rice) |
1/2 cup picante sauce |
1 cup (4 ounces) preshredded reduced-fat 4-cheese mexican blend cheese |
chopped fresh cilantro (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place chile halves, cut sides up, on a round microwave-safe plate. Cover with wax paper; microwave at HIGH 3 minutes. 2. While chiles cook, combine beans, rice, and picante sauce in a medium bowl, stirring well. Spoon bean mixture evenly into chile halves. Cover with wax paper; microwave at HIGH 2 minutes. Uncover chiles, sprinkle each half with 2 tablespoons cheese, and microwave at HIGH 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Sprinkle evenly with cilantro, if desired. |
