Chile Relleno Casserole

Servings: 8 to 12

Servings: 8-12
Ingredients
  • 1 (1 lb 11 ounce) can sliced green chiles (I use fresh Anaheim peppers, then roasted and peeled)
  • 4 eggs (I use 6)
  • 1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk (I used heavy cream and it came out great)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons flour (I added more for more breading - maybe about 4 to 6 tablespoons)
  • 1 lb cheese grated (I use Oaxaca always)
Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Spray a glass oblong casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray
  3. Layer chilies on bottom of dish
  4. In a blender, blend eggs with milk, salt, and flour (I whip the whites first until theyre a little stiff, then I blend the rest)
  5. Pour over layered chiles
  6. Sprinkle grated cheese on top of liquid mixture (I prefer the Mexican 4 cheese blend)
  7. Bake 1 hour
Notes
  • I've tried the original recipe without my own modifications before and it was delicious.  Never made the original though.  Made my modified one (see parenthesized steps/ingredients) and it came out delicious.
