I made this tonight and my husband and I really enjoyed it. I didn't use the entire can of chiles but it still had a good amount of spice. I'd definitely make this again.

This recipe wasn't that good. I was disappointed in how it ended up tasting. The crab cake mixture tastes better on its own, but not with the poblano pepper. Also, if you don't like food to be too spicy, I wouldn't include the full 40z of diced canned chiles. The crab mixture would taste better baked on pastry dough vs the pepper. Wouldn't recommend this recipe
