Chili rellenos are chili peppers which are stuffed...usually with a picadillo or cheese and then served as part of a larger meal. I think they are a fantastic side to grilled meat or fish. You can use any type of large chile pepper. I prefer to use Hatch chilies but these can be difficult to come by since the season is short. Poblanos work just as well.
<br />Chili rellenos can be baked or deep fried. In this recipe, I have stuffed mild roasted hatch chilies with a simple mixture of goat cheese, raisins, and pine nuts. They are baked and then drizzled with warm Crema Mexicana to serve.
