 Directions

Recipe by: Jo Merrill * for jalapenos in the salsa, use fresh or canned,
seeded and finely chopped. Or use drained, seeded chipotle chiles in adobo
sauce. * Use 8-12 large fresh mild green chiles such as Anaheim6 or so
inches long. or 8-12 fresh poblano chiles3 to 5 inches long. Salsa: in a
bowl stir together the ingredients and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or
overnight.

Using a barbecue with a lid, place chiles on lightly greased grill 4-6
inches above a solid bed of hot coals. Cook, uncovered, without turning,
until chiles are blistered and slightly charred on one side. (2 or 3
minutes) Remove and peel off any blistered skin that will come off easily.
Slit each chili lengthwise down cooked side. Scrape out seeds but leave
chiles whole. In a bowl, mix shrimp and onions; fill chiles with this
mixture. Place chilies, slit side up, on grill 4-6 inches above a solid
bed of coals. Cover barbecue and adjust vents as needed to maintain an even
heat. Cook until shrimp mixture is hot to the touch (5-7 minutes). Serve
chilies with salsa and sour cream. 4 main dish servings. Recipe from The
