Ingredients
- 2 serrano chiles, stemmed
- 2 plum tomatoes
- 3 cloves garlic, 1 whole and 2 finely chopped
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 6 ounces ground pork
- 1 poblano chile
- 2 plantains, peeled and diced
- 3 tablespoons almonds, toasted
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- Kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Freshly chopped cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the serrano chiles and tomatoes on a very hot grill and cook until charred, 12 to 15 minutes. Stem the chiles an add to a blender with the whole garlic clove and blend until smooth.
- Saute the remaining 2 garlic cloves and the onions in a skillet until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pork and cook until no longer pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato/chile sauce to the pork mixture and heat through.
- Meanwhile, place the poblano chile on the grill until its skin is blackened, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the skin and seeds, keeping the pepper whole.
- Saute half the plantains in a skillet until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes and then add the pork mixture. Mix in the almonds, raisins and season with salt. Spoon the pork mixture into the poblano chile.
- Put the chile in the oven and bake until heated through, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, blend the remaining plantains with the heavy cream. Spoon the plantain sauce on the bottom of a plate and top with the chile relleno. Sprinkle with the cilantro over the top and serve.
