About Green chiles

Green chiles are a vibrant, savory ingredient commonly used in Mexican, Southwestern, and Indian cuisines for their distinct flavor and mild to spicy heat. These peppers are rich in vitamins A and C, which support immune function and skin health, as well as antioxidants that combat free radicals. Green chiles are also a good source of dietary fiber, low in calories, and contain capsaicin, a natural compound linked to promoting metabolism and reducing inflammation. Their potassium content can aid in maintaining healthy blood pressure, while their low-fat, low-sugar profile makes them a heart-friendly food choice. However, their spiciness may cause discomfort for individuals sensitive to heat or those with digestive issues. Typically enjoyed fresh, roasted, or in sauces, green chiles are a flavorful and nutrient-packed addition to various dishes.
