Recipe View 20 mins Rinse the poblano peppers, and remove the stem and core. Remove any remaining seeds. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Place peppers in the skillet, and cook until blistered and blackened. Turn frequently to blacken all of the skin. You want to make sure that no part of the pepper remains crispy. Place the peppers into a paper bag, fold the top closed, and let the peppers steam for a few minutes to loosen the skin.

Don't get prissy about it; you can eat the skins, even if they're black - most people like some of the black skin.

Recipe View 15 mins Insert a nice thick piece of cheese into each pepper, and secure the opening with a toothpick. Coat the peppers in flour. Gently place the peppers into the hot oil, and reduce the heat to medium. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes per side. Don't try to turn them over until the bottom has a firm crust on it. Try to avoid letting the cheese run out. When both sides are slightly browned and the coating is firm, remove from the pan, and drain on paper towels.

For a richer flavor, consider using a blend of cheeses such as Monterey Jack and Oaxaca.
If you don't have queso asadero, you can substitute it with mozzarella or another good melting cheese.
Be careful not to overfill the peppers with cheese, as it can easily melt out during frying.
