very labor intensive with having to blacken and peel the peppers. While I was peeling the peppers they fell apart so I could not seal them back up, and therefor could not finish the recipe as directed. (I would have had tooth picks all over to hold them together). So I stuffed them as directed with the meat mixture and cheese on top and baked them. I used the cheese the recipe called for on two of them and used goat cheese on the other two. Flavor was good but too much work for the return.

This is one of the best things I've ever made my boyfriend told me. I used grilled chicken though, it still turned out great. I used the leftover stuffing to put inside quesadillas the next day. Yummy! Thanks for the great recipe!

This was VERY good. Although the coating was a little different than what I'm used to.

To speed up the process you could also use the chiles that come already prepared in the can. They won't taste as fresh but you still get the same result.

muy tasty recipe. I omitted the beef, since I hate it, just stuffed them with cheese. I also used big fat jalapenos instead of poblanos, which are smaller but look a lot nicer and taste better when roasted. I am subtracting a star for the choice of cheese--mozzarella is a bit too bland. something stronger like sharp cheddar would hold up well.

Peppers were so hot I was choking preparing them! You must love hot stuff to like this. We thought it was great and our bellys were on fire afterwards. Probably won't make again, it was torture to prepare peppers for me.

My husband's parents were born and raised in Mexico. Therefore he is used to having authentic mexican food and he really likes these. Thanks for a great recipe.

This recipe just did not have enough flavor. It was ok, but I think tatse did not justify the preparation effort.

This is a great chile rellenos recipe. My husband lived a lot of years in New Mexico where there is an abundance of really good Mexican food. He said that he never had the chiles stuffed with meat (usually just cheese)--but he really liked the flavor. He said that these were as good as what he had in New Mexico. I used my own homemade salsa instead of the chopped tomatoes, (which has skinned roma tomatoes, onion, green chiles, cilantro and brown sugar,garlic, salt and pepper) I cooked 1 lb. of hamburger, so I had enough meat left over to use to make tacos another night. Thanks for a great recipe and for helping me to prepare something my husband really enjoyed.
