Chili Relleno Rice
I have to confess that I did a very bad thing. I was browsing around Barnes and Noble this week and I came across Tyler Florence's new Cookbook, Family Meal. While I flipped through it I came across a recipe that sounded soooo good, and would match perfectly with the Ribeye Steak and Corn on the Cob Meal I was planning to cook for my family who was visiting from Colorado. I didn't want to be obvious (not sure on the rules about stealing a recipe without buying the book); which, by the way, is fabulous and is on the top of my Christmas list this year. So as I was trying to memorize the recipe, I decided to do this:
Camera phones come in handy sometimes. Is this illegal? Should I not be airing my dirty laundry on this blog? Well, either way, I will buy the book, I promise. And I feel much better now.
Amen.
Chili Relleno Rice
2 Cups Cooked Rice
2 Cups Sour Cream
1 Can Cream of Chicken Soup
2 (7 oz) Cans Chopped Green Chili's
2 1/4 Cups Cubed Monterey Jack Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 375.
In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, cream of chicken soup, green chili's, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
In a casserole dish, add rice. Pour cream mixture and over the rice. Drop in cubes of cheese and stir to combine. Cover and bake at 375 for 20-30 minutes until warm and bubbly and slightly brown on top. Delicious!!

I bought this cookbook a few months ago and this was the first recipe I tried. It is fabulous!!! Everyone wants the recipe. I LOVE a really beautiful cookbook and actually read this in two sittings front to back. Got teary/can totally relate to his love of family and friends and making them happy with his cooking. Such a wonderful gift. And, oh yeah, don't feel too bad about copying it!
Working for a publisher I can tell you that posting this is in violation of copyright laws but, you sure made me put this cookbook on my wish list! :) That's GOT to be a good thing! Seems like good advertising to me.
My mother-in-law makes this dish whenever comfort/love is needed: when a baby is born, when there is a death, birthday parties, holidays, cold winter days, camping trips, tough times at work, you name it. I wrote a paper on this rice dish and what it means to those who have had the pleasure of enjoying this dish; it is one of those few food items in my life that evokes feelings and emotions because of the way in which it is prepared and the reasons and timing for its preparation and presentation. It is up there with my grandmother's Key Lime Pie!
