Ingredients

  • 6 medium poblano peppers
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion

  • 1 cup carrots, peeled and diced
  • 1⁄2 cup celery, diced
  • 1 1⁄2 cups queso panela cheese, diced

Directions

  1. Place oven rack 6 inches from heat source.
  2. Heat broiler.
  3. Place poblano peppers on baking sheet and broil 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until skins are charred and blackened. Let stand 15 minutes.
  4. Heat oven to 350°F.
  5. Carefully remove pepper skins with a paper towel. Using a paring knife, make 2-inch cut in pepper and carefully remove seeds and membrane. Set aside.

Top with remaining mole sauce and bake 20 minutes. Garnish, if desired.
