Good afternoon,
My Dad loves Chiles Rellenos and I can’t wait to make it for him. Quick question could I use Poblano peppers instead of Hatch peppers?
Thank you,
Hi! Yes, most definitely. Any kind of large chile you can stuff will work. I hope you both enjoy! 🙂
I made this recipe today and liked it! I baked it in a 8×10 glass dish and would do that again. I substituted arrowroot flour for the garbanzo bean powder (just personal preference) and it turned out well. I use Food to Live brand organic arrowroot powder if anyone wants a good source.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Thank you for making my life wonderful when it comes to eating my favorite dish, Chili Rellenos.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing. 🙂
I halved the recipe, added ground beef fried with onion and garlic. I also used all purpose GF flour mixed with cornmeal. My husband said “this may be the best chiles rellenos I have ever eaten!” He is somewhat of an expert as that is what he orders every time he can. Thank you for the recipe. I took some liberties with changes, because that’s what I had on hand.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for taking the time to share. 🙂
