Ingredients
1 lb. ground chicken, turkey or beef
1 can (15 oz.) chili without beans
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
1 medium tomato – diced small
4 green onions – chopped
4 large poblano peppers
1 tbsp olive oil
Directions
- Preheat broiler.
- Cut peppers lengthwise in half, and remove seeds/stem. Place on a foil lined sheet pan, cut side down, brush with 1 tbsp. olive oil. Broil peppers 4 in. from heat, until skins blister, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven & set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, brown meat, while crumbling, until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Add can of chili & salt to skillet. Mix thoroughly and heat through. Stir in 1/2 cup of cheese, tomato & green onions, mixing until all ingredients are incorporated.
- Turn peppers cut side up and fill with the chili mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and broil until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes longer. Serve hot!
Notes
- We used poblano peppers for this recipe, but you could certainly use bell peppers.
- Hormel was the brand of Chili Without Beans that we used. Not too spicy, so perfect for the kiddos too!
