Type: Vegetables
Courses: Side dish
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 198g / 7ozButternut squash - (abt 1 1/2 to 2 lbs) (medium)
1 lb 454g / 16ozFresh green Poblano chiles - (abt 4)
  = (or 1 cup canned Poblanos)
2 tablespoons 30mlOlive oil
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozChopped yellow onion
1 teaspoon 5mlSalt
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlChili powder
1 cup 237mlGrated Monterey Jack

Recipe Instructions

With a vegetable peeler, peel the squash, then cut in half, and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into 1/4-inch pieces.

Roast the peppers by placing them over a stovetop gas flame, turning them frequently with tongs until all sides are charred black, about 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternately, the peppers can be roasted under a broiler, or on top of a gas or charcoal grill.) Place the blackened peppers in a plastic or paper bag, and let rest until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Remove the stems and seeds, and chop.

Heat the oil in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the squash, salt, and chili powder, and stir well. Cover and cook until the squash is almost tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Stir in chiles and cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes. Sprinkle the cheese over the vegetables and cover. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.

Serve hot out of the pan.

This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
