Chile Relleno Grilled Cheese
4 Servings
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
4 poblano peppers
1 avocado
2 tsp fresh lime juice
1/8 tsp salt
8 slices whole wheat bread
3 ounces shredded Monterrey Jack (about 3/4 cup)
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
2 T nonfat milk
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 T unsalted butter
2 tsp canola oil
1.
Place an oven rack in the upper third of the oven.
Preheat the broiler to high. Place poblanos on a rimmed baking sheet
lined with aluminum foil and broil, turning occasionally, until
blistered and charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a
bowl, cover and set aside to cool.
2.
Meanwhile, mash avocado in a small bowl with lime
juice and salt. Spread avocado mixture on four slices of bread. Divide Monterrey Jack among remaining slices. When peppers are cool enough to
handle, peel off charred skin, remove stems and seeds and cut in half.
Layer pepper halves over cheese and top with avocado-smeared bread.
3.
Whisk together eggs, milk and chili powder in a shallow dish. Dip two sandwiches into egg mixture, coating the tops and bottoms but not the sides.
4.
Melt 11/2 teaspoons butter and 1 teaspoon oil in a
large heavy skillet over medium heat; swirl to coat. Lay the two
sandwiches in skillet and cook until golden on the bottom, 3 to 5
minutes. Carefully flip and reduce heat to medium low. Continue cooking
until second side is golden and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes more.
Dip remaining sandwiches in egg mixture and repeat cooking process over
medium-low heat.
