ingredients

3 ¹⁄₂ cups Simply Potatoes Southwest Style Hash Browns
6 poblano peppers
1 lb chorizo sausage, diced
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
1 lb cheddar cheese, grated or 1 lb monterey jack cheese, for even more heat

directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the poblanos on a baking sheet and a little oil and salt. Roast for 20 minutes or until all the skin blisters. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 10 minutes.
Peel the skin and cut a slit into the side of each pepper. Remove the seeds and membranes by hand and rinse with a little water to get all seeds. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium, render the diced chorizo until crispy. Remove the chorizo from the pan and set aside.
Add 1 package of Simply Potatoes Southwest Style Hash Browns to the skillet and spread evenly. Cook for 6-7 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom. Flip over in sections and continue to cook for another 6-7 minutes.
Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro and season with salt.
Using a spoon, stuff the poblanos with the hashbrown mix into the pobanos and top with the grated cheese.
Place the stuffed poblanos back into the oven for about 8 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden.
