About Chili relleno

Chili Relleno is a traditional Mexican dish featuring a large, roasted poblano pepper stuffed with cheese, meat, or a combination of both. The pepper is typically coated in an egg batter and fried until golden, creating a crispy shell that contrasts with the savory filling. Variations may include a tomato-based sauce to add flavor complexity. While Chili Relleno offers protein and valuable nutrients from the pepper, such as vitamins C and A, its frying process can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for baked versions or using lighter cheeses can make it a healthier choice. Often enjoyed as part of Mexican cuisine, Chili Relleno is a flavorful dish with rich cultural heritage, combining textures and tastes in a way that appeals to both traditional and modern palates.
