Poblano Cream Sauce is a rich, velvety sauce made from roasted poblano peppers, cream, garlic, and onion. It’s perfect for drizzling over grilled meats, enchiladas, tacos, or pasta.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large poblano peppers
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp lime juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Roast the poblano peppers over an open flame or under a broiler until the skins are blackened and blistered, about 7-10 minutes. Place them in a covered bowl or sealed bag for 10 minutes, then peel off the skins and remove seeds.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. In a blender, combine roasted poblanos, sautéed onion and garlic, heavy cream, sour cream, cumin, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  4. Return the mixture to the skillet and simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened. Add lime juice if desired.
  5. Serve warm over your favorite dishes.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add a roasted jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Delicious over chicken, shrimp, enchiladas, or roasted vegetables.
