Ingredients

2 large poblanos

4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

4 large flour tortillas

2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Directions

  1. Heat the broiler to high.
  2. Char the poblanos under the broiler to blacken their skins on all sides, 7 to 8 minutes. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand 10 minutes.
  3. Peel and seed the peppers, then slice. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and add a tortilla, cover the tortilla with 1/2 cup cheese and 1/4 of the peppers. Fold the tortilla in half and cook 2 minutes to crisp and char the tortilla evenly and melt cheese. Remove and cut into wedges; repeat.

This was the first time roasting poblanos and boy was this good! I increased the broiler time to 10 minutes because they didn’t look blistered enough and that worked well. I added chicken and some green onion to the quesadilla as well as a homemade fresh tomato-onion-jalapeño-cilantro salsa from Rachel Rays chorizo quesadillas recipe (I liked this recipe better). This is a keeper and very flavorful!
