Notes
To roast poblanos quickly, place them in a skillet that has been preheated at medium heat for a few minutes. Drizzle in a little oil. Be careful because they will pop as the skins blister. Turn as needed until most of the skins have blistered. Remove from pan and place in plastic bag to steam and cool. Remove blistered skins, stems and seeds.
