STOVETOP
7/10
Roasted poblano strips simmered with corn, onion, and Mexican crema for a rich, smoky side dish.
Why It Works
Fire-roasting blisters poblano skin and converts vegetal bitterness to smokiness; the crema emulsifies with the chile juices, creating a naturally thick sauce.
Key Ingredients
poblano chiles
crema
corn kernels
onion
garlic
Oaxaca cheese
