Poblano Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Lazy Poppers Recipes

POBLANO-STUFFED BACON -WRAPPED "LAZY" POPPERS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Brown the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon--about 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel.
• Wash peppers. Cut a slit lengthwise on one side of each pepper, and then carve about a quarter inch of pepper out alongside this slit so your fingers can barely fit inches It's a bit tricky, but gently using the flexibility of the pepper and the narrow opening, I was able to wash out the seeds and membranes without breaking the pepper, while also providing enough room for the filling.
• In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Parmesan, and sour cream until well combined. Stir in the cooled sausage.
• Using a small spoon, stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture. Wrap each pepper with bacon and secure with toothpick by inserting pick into both pepper and bacon to hold. If it doesn't come close to wrapping around, just drape it over the top (where filling is), and secure.
• Preheat grill to medium. Brush grates with vegetable oil. Set peppers on grill. Cover and cook until peppers are tender and bacon is crisp--about 30 minutes.
• Enjoy!

POBLANO POPPERS

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Melt butter and olive oil together in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms, scallions, and garlic in hot skillet until mushrooms have released their liquid and the liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, stir parsley into mushroom mixture, and let mixture cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Stir mushroom mixture, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and Creole seasoning together in a bowl. Stuff each hollowed-out poblano pepper with mushroom mixture and place on prepared baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven, turning once, until stuffing is hot and peppers are browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
