Instructions

Place whole peppers over an open flame (gas burner) or under the broiler. Roast, turning frequently until evenly black and blistered.

Equipment you will use

Broiler

Remove from heat, place in a plastic bag, and let them sweat for a while. This will allow the skins to peel of easily.

Equipment you will use

Ziploc Bags

While the peppers are sweating, place the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until evenly browned. When beef is fully cooked, add the onion, garlic and tomato, and cook for a few more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Remove the peppers from the bag, and peel off the burnt skin. You may wish to wear protective gloves. Run peppers under cool running water to rinse away any burnt pieces. Make a small vertical slit in the side of the peppers, and remove the seeds and veins. Stuff each pepper halfway with the ground beef mixture, then fill the rest of the way with shredded cheese. Close the slits, and secure with toothpicks.

Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz

Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are great choices for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. The Avinyo Cava Reserva with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
