Roasting poblano peppers softens their flesh and deepens their flavor with a smoky char, making them ready for stuffing, blending into sauces, or dicing into soups and salsas. The blistered skins peel away easily after a short steam in a covered bowl, leaving tender, pliable chiles behind.
Ingredients
- 4 poblano peppers
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoons salt
Method
-
Preheat the broiler to high and position a rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
-
Rub the poblano peppers all over with olive oil and arrange them whole on a foil-lined baking sheet.
-
Broil the peppers, turning every 3 to 4 minutes with tongs, until the skins are blistered and charred on all sides, 12 to 15 minutes total.
-
Transfer the charred peppers to a heatproof bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap or a plate to trap steam.
-
Let the peppers steam, covered, until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes.
-
Peel off the loosened charred skins with your fingers or a paring knife, discarding the skins.
-
Slit each pepper open, remove the stem and seeds, and season the flesh with salt.
-
Use the roasted poblanos immediately in your recipe, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
