PREPARATION:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

- Using high heat, heat up a large cast iron.
- Place the poblano pepper in the pan and continue flipping every minute with metal tongs until there is a noticeable char on the outside of the poblano’s skin. Remove from the heat.
- When cooled, cut tops off of poblano peppers and make a lengthwise incision along the pepper to remove the seeds and stems. Set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add extra virgin olive oil.
- Add the diced yellow onion and minced garlic to the pan and cook until translucent (2-3 minutes).

- Once cooked, remove the stuffed poblano peppers from the oven and top with raw shredded cheddar cheese.
- Place the stuffed poblano peppers back into the oven for 4 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
