- Ingredients:
- 3
- Serves:
-
8
ingredients
- 4 -8 hatch chili peppers, washed and dried
- olive oil, to taste
- salt, to taste
directions
- I did two pans of this because I made pork stuffed hatch chiles. The recipe is listed for a pan.
- Preheat broiler to 425. Line a baking tray with foil. (I didn't mess with the foil, and my pans were fine).
- Lightly coat hatch chile peppers with olive oil, a sprinkle of salt, and place them on the baking tray in a single layer.
- Place the baking tray in the upper third of your oven, and roast for about 10 minutes, until the chile peppers start to blister and blacken.
- Using tongs, turn the chile peppersover to roast on the other side for another 10 to 15 minutes.
- When the chile pepper skins have blistered and blackened, remove from the oven.
- Place the roasted hatch chile peppers in a bowl (while hot), and cover with foil or plastic wrap and let the chile steam.
- If you're using the chile right away, go ahead and peel them when they're cool enough to handle and use right away.
- If storing, place the cooled chile in vacuum bags and vacuum seal them. I store about 3 to 4 chile peppers in one bag to batch freeze them. Store in the freezer until neededd. Thaw them out in the fridge overnight.

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
