I hate to admit that this is yet another recipe from leftovers. I told my daughter that I was going to pretend that I made this recipe from a “just grilled” chicken breast because the word “leftovers” was an extremely overused term on this blog. She told me I was cheating. . . . . *sigh* . . . . I’m not much on cheating. I’m not much on lying and deceiving, either. Talk about overused these days. So, I’m ‘fessin’ up. Yep, leftover chicken. You know, it really never hurts to throw an extra piece of chicken on the barbie. Right? Same amount of prep time. Same amount of cook time. And every time you do I’ll be there for you. Just waiting with another recipe for a leftover something-or-nuther. So, here we are. Knowing that I had this great chicken breast, I headed to the store to get a few poblano peppers to make this recipe. When I got there, I really wasn’t sure these were labeled correctly. I swear, I’ve never seen poblano peppers this size. They should have been labeled “Humongous Poblanos” or “El Super Grande Poblanos”. These babies are gigantor! I really should have put a yardstick next to them for the picture. No one is going to believe they are really this big. We’re talking six or seven inches long and four inches across at the top. And those are the two smaller ones that I bought! The big ones are still in the refrigerator. If yours turn out to be this big, you may want to double the recipe! In the meantime, one large chicken breast should do for four “normal” sized peppers. Now, there is something for you today that is not a leftover. It’s brand-spankin’ new. And that’s my first ever giveaway! . . . *sound effects* . . . *and the crowd goes crazy* . . . Woooohooooo! Yay!!!!!!! . . . *thunderous applause* . . .
