Ingredients

  • 30 green chiles pimientos de pardon 
  • 150 g Gouda cheese block
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • Cut an opening in each chile lengthwise. Then hollow out the seeds if they are too much. 
  • Cut cheese into single bars and stuff the cheese into the chiles. After filling, squeeze the chiles to close the opening as much as possible.
  • Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, roast the chiles until they are slightly brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Sprinkle kosher salt and transfer to a plate. Enjoy it with a glass of wine.
