This was the first time I "charred" peppers on the grill. *Note to self, stop "charring" while the peppers still have some shape left to them.

Ingredients
  1. 6 Poblano chiles
  2. 2 ears shucked corn
  3. Cooking spray
  4. 2 cups chopped seeded tomato, divided
  5. 1 cup hot cooked brown rice (I substituted quinoa and it was great!)
  6. 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, divided
  7. 2 TBS pine nuts, toasted
  8. 2 TBS cream cheese (1/3-less-fat cream cheese is called for but I used regular because that is what I had)
  9. 2 tsp. lime juice
  10. 1/4 tsp kosher salt (I used sea salt)
  11. 3 garlic cloves, minced
  12. 3 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (about 3/4 cup)
  13. 2 ounces queso fresco, crumbled (about 1/2 cup) (I found this at Wegmans-very tasty stuff)
Instructions
  1. 1. Preheat grill
  2. 2. Lightly coat poblanos and corn with cooking spray. Place poblanos and corn on grill rack. Grill poblanos 12 minutes or until charred, turning occasionally. Grill corn 10 minutes or until lightly charred, turning occasionally. (mine was already cooked so I just charred it a bit) Wrap poblanos in foi; let stand 15 minutes. Peel and discard skins. Cut a length-wise slit in each chile; discard seeds and membranes. Set aside.
  3. 3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  4. 4. Cut kernels from ears of corn. Combine kernels, 1 cup tomato, rice, 2 TBS cilantro, pine nuts, and next 5 ingredients (through Monterey Jack); toss well to combine. open each poblano; divide rice mixture evenly among chiles (chiles will be very full). Place on a baking sheet bake at 400 degrees for 7 minutes or until hot.
  5. Turn broiler to high. Sprinkle chiles with queso fresco. Broil 3 mins. or until cheese is lightly browned.
  6. Place chiles on a platter. Sprinkel with remaining 1 cup tomato and remaining 2 TBS cilantro. Serve with hot sauce, if desired. (I served it with some fresh pico de gallo salsa which was jut the right accompaniment)
