CHILE CHEESE SQUARES



Chile Cheese Squares image

This is a family favorite and it is very easy to make. We originally discovered it as an appetizer, but I think it is great for brunch. I also make it just for myself and freeze the squares to have for lunch in the future. The recipe is very open to substitutions. Fresh green chiles can be used if you happen to live where you can get them and the recipe can probably be made without them or with any amount according to your tastes.

Pat's Chiles Rellenos Squares image

Pat M. brought these to my rughooker's semi-annual pot luck yesterday. I must say, I had more than my share. It was the best of this type of casserole/appetizer I have tried. Let stand for a few minutes to firm up and cut small for appetizers. May be served with Picante sauce on the side.

CHILE RELLENO BITES



Chile Relleno Bites image

Chile Relleno Bites are a quick hack for making bite sized chile rellenos as an appetizer. Make ahead until you are ready to serve!

Provided by Jessica Formicola

Categories     Appetizer

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound package square wonton wrappers (*see note )
16 ounces pepper jack cheese
2 egg whites
1 tablespoon water
vegetable oil (enough to fill 1 incha heavy medium sauce pan)
salsa (optional)
sour cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Start by prepping your ingredients. See note for wonton wrappers. Cut brick of cheese into four long strips and then again into one inch bricks. Whisk egg whites and water in a small bowl. Use a cutting board or plate for your work space. Use two medium or one large airtight plastic container for freezing/storing. Cut pieces of wax paper to fit in between layers of chile rellenos to prevent sticking. Your fingers will be all gross, so it is best to prepare these items ahead of time.
  • You are now ready to start the rolling! I suggest you find something interesting on the tube or radio prior to getting your fingers all mucky. Start by placing one wrapper on your work surface to look like a diamond. Using your fingers, lightly baste egg white mixture over the entire surface. Place one cheese brick in the bottom center. Fold up bottom edge and roll once. Fold in sides to look like an open envelope. Fold over the rest of the way to make a nice, neat little package. Place in your container.
  • Continue with remaining cheese and wonton wrappers. Avoid having any of the rellenos touch, as they will freeze together and make it difficult to fry later. You might end up with an uneven number. Save the cheese for use in another dish and/or fry the wonton wrappers to make crispy noodles (the ones they give you as an appetizer in Chinese food restaurants).
  • Cover your container and place in the freezer for a minimum of one hour. I've kept these in the freezer in an airtight container for two months or more.
  • When you are ready to prepare your rellenos, heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Different ranges take varying amounts of time to heat. If you sprinkle a dab of water into the hot oil and it sizzles and spits- it is ready. (Be careful doing this...)
  • Using a fry spoon (see picture), add 5-8 (depending on pan size) chile rellenos to hot oil. Flipping once or twice, cook rellenos until they are golden brown and crispy. The way I know they are cooked is when the first relleno starts to leak cheese. The sound of the oil will change dramatically when this happens. Then I know it is time to remove them all before they are void of any cheese. This takes approximately 3-4 minutes and will decrease in time as you fry because your oil will get progressively hotter.
  • Remove rellenos with your fry spoon to a paper towel lined plate or baking sheet. If you are making a large batch, heat your oven to the lowest possible temperature to keep warm while frying, but not too hot to have a cheese explosion. Again, the goal is to keep the cheese inside the wrapper!
  • Serve immediately with salsa, sour cream or guacamole. Enjoy your Chile Relleno Bites!
  • If you've tried this recipe, come back and let us know how it was!
