The chile relleno is a staple of Mexican cuisine and now Trader Joe's is making it easy to enjoy this beloved dish anytime with its new Chiles Rellenos con Queso offering.
For those unfamiliar, chile relleno is a Mexican dish that consists of poblano peppers stuffed with minced meat and coated with any eggy batter. The peppers are also often served in a rich tomato sauce. Trader Joe's sticks somewhat close to this traditional recipe (minus the meat) by taking fire-roasted poblano peppers, stuffing them with cheese, and then coating them in an egg batter before frying them whole. The fried peppers are then served in a zesty tomato sauce.
Best of all, Trader Joe's Chiles Rellenos con Queso is incredibly easy to prepare at home. Simply pop it in the microwave, air fryer, or conventional oven and you'll have dinner in no time.
