Ingredients
4 Large Poblano Peppers
2 Large Ears Fresh Sweet Corn, husks and silks removed
1/3 cup Mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Chopped Fresh Cilantro plus additional for garnish (optional)
2 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Cumin
3/4 cup Shredded Pepper Jack Cheese, divided
1/2 cup Crumbled Queso Fresco plus additional for garnish (optional)
1/4 cup Drained and Finely Chopped Roasted Red Pepper
1/4 cup Finely Chopped Red Onion

3. With small, sharp knife, leaving stem end intact, cut lengthwise slit along 1 side of each poblano pepper; remove seeds and membranes being careful not to tear peppers. Fill peppers with about 3/4 cup corn mixture; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup pepper Jack cheese. Place peppers, cheese side up, on hot grill rack; cover and cook 2 minutes or until cheese melts.

 

4. Serve stuffed peppers sprinkled with cilantro and/or queso fresco, if desired.
