Directions
Chicken Breasts in Poblano Sauce Au Gratin, Years ago I was San Louis Potosi’, Mexico, at a quaint little restaurant on the Zocolo I ordered the most amazing chicken dish My taste buds were doing flip flops! I asked the chef for the recipe – he was happy to share but couldn’t give me exact directions – told me I would be able to figure it out Surprisingly, he was right! This recipe is so delicious, elegant and EASY! My kind of recipe! Yes, the sauce is rich, although you can prepare the dish with light ingredients Note: I am a big fan of brining chicken Your choice If you do brine, be sure to rinse the chicken before cooking , This is a delightful recipe, but I doubt if you were served cheddar cheese in San Luis Potosi, because it is extremely rare in Mexico I have lived here for several years, and I suspect that the cheese on this yummy recipe was either manchego or Oaxacan or Chihuahua I also advise roasting the chiles first – it gives them a better flavor Thanks for sharing it, however – we enjoyed it with manchego cheese , Years ago I was San Louis Potosi’, Mexico, at a quaint little restaurant on the Zocolo I ordered the most amazing chicken dish My taste buds were doing flip flops!

Note: Dh and I Really Like Spicy Food, So My Cheese of Choice Is a Habanero Cheddar. If You Want Just a Touch of Spice, Try Jalapeno Jack. Any Combination of Cheese Will Work. |
