Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 Large Hatch Chilies
4 Hatch chile Crab Cakes (HEB Seafood Department)
Directions:
Roast chilies under the broiler until skin is bubbles. Remove from oven and put into a plastic bag so the chiles can sweat. Once the chiles are cool enough to handle, make a slit down the middle of the chile and remove the seeds. Try to keep the shape of the pepper intact.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Butter or spray a 9x13 inch Pyrex pan.
Stuff the crab mixture into the chile and cook until bubbly about 15 minutes.
Serve chilies on top of fresh corn and black bean crema (recipe follow).
