Cooking Tips

  • To easily peel the roasted poblano peppers, place them in a plastic bag for a few minutes after roasting. The steam will help loosen the skin.
  • Feel free to adjust the spiciness of the dish by adding more or less poblano peppers.
  • For a lighter version, you can use low-fat milk or substitute some of the milk with chicken broth in the creamy sauce.
  • Serve the dish with a side of rice or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat the dish in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of chicken broth or milk to prevent it from drying out.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
