Step 1

Preheat your oven broiler.

Step 2

Rub poblano chiles with 1 teaspoon olive oil and place on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil. Place pan under broiler for 3-5 minutes, or until the pepper skins are charred and peeling.

Step 3

Remove pan from the oven and use tongs to turn chiles over. Return pan to oven and continue broiling until the skins on second side are charred and peeling.

Step 4

Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic in the oil until onion is soft. Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.

Step 5

Remove chiles from the oven and rub off the skins. Be careful - they will be hot! Use a knife to slice peppers open; remove the stem and seeds. Cut the peppers into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

Step 6

Add diced tomato and Serrano chile to the pan with onion and saute 1-2 minutes longer. Add the diced chipotle pepper and prepared Poblano chiles to the pan. Pour the chile mixture into a separate bowl and set aside.

Step 7

Add the evaporated milk to the skillet and begin heating over medium heat. Whisk while heating until milk begins to simmer. Stir cornstarch into water until dissolved, then whisk mixture into the simmering milk.

Step 8

Turn heat to low. Add one handful of each cheese to the milk mixture, whisking constantly until melted and smooth. Continue adding and whisking until all of the cheese has been added.

Step 9

Whisk crema into the queso sauce, then stir the chile pepper mixture in and heat through. Serve immediately.
