Hatch Green Chile Breakfast Casserole Recipes

HATCH GREEN CHILE BREAKFAST EGG CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Place the Hatch green chile pepper on the foil. Once the broiler is ready place the peppers in the oven, and broil them for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the skin is browned. Remove the peppers from the oven, and set them aside.
• Turn the oven temperature down to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a small pan, add 1 teaspoon of oil, and sauté the onion and spinach together on medium to medium high heat for about 3 minutes or until they are fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs and milk on medium-high speed with an electric mixer until they are light and fluffy. Add the flour (or starch), baking powder, salt, garlic powder, pepper, and cumin.
• Blend the ingredients for about 30 seconds until they are just combined and smooth. Stir in the canned green chilies (8 ounces).
• Layer the bottom of an 8×11 casserole dish with the cooked spinach and onion. (See notes for other sizes of dishes.)
• Then, add a few slices of cheese, followed by the egg and green chile batter.
• Once cooled, peel the skin off the roasted hatch green chiles and slice them length-wise, removing the stem. Layer the top of the casserole with tomato, slices, sliced roasted Hatch green chiles, and more cheese.
• Place the casserole in the oven, and bake for 30-40 minutes. Check the casserole after 30 minutes. If the outside is brown but the inside is still not set, cover the dish, and continue to bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. For crispy edges, set the oven to broil the last minute of cooking.
• Remove the casserole from the oven. Sprinkle it with extra cheese (if desired) and fresh cilantro. Salt and pepper to taste.

HATCH GREEN CHILE MEXICAN BREAKFAST CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Roast the peppers by placing them on an open 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. Peel the peppers, split in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds and the stems. Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Spread the chiles in a flat layer across the bottom of the dish. In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat, stirring to break up the meat, until browned. Add the onions and bell peppers, and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes. Add the garlic and chili powder, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and half-and-half with the hot sauce, salt and black pepper. Spoon 1/3 of the sausage mixture over the chiles in the dish, top with 1/3 of the tortilla quarters, and 1/3 of the cheese mixture. Repeat layering, ending with a cheese layer. Pour the egg mixture over the ingredients. Let rest, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake until bubbly and golden brown, and a knife inserted into the custard comes out clean, about 1 hour and 10 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving. Optional: Serve with sour cream, picante sauce, cilantro, and flour or corn tortillas.

• Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and mustard.
• In a large bowl, combine the bread, egg mixture, green chiles, sausage and bell pepper, and 1 1/2 cups of the cheese. Stir to combine well. Cover with plastic or transfer to a large ziploc bag, then place in fridge and let sit for approximately 30 minutes or until egg mixture has been entirely absorbed.
