Notes

Tips/Tricks

  • if you don’t have a BBQ you can grill the chicken – I would char it in a grill pan and finish it in the oven @ 200c for about 10 minutes until cooked
  • ALWAYS let your meat rest before serving – this allows the juices to redistribute and makes your meat juicer and more tender
  • substitute shishito peppers or if you like it spicy jalapenos instead of poblano peppers
