A delightful twist on a classic dish, these stuffed green chilies are cheesy, flavorful, and easy to prepare.
Preheat your microwave-safe dish by lightly greasing it.
Greasing the dish prevents the chilies from sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Mix the breadcrumbs with salt and garlic powder in a bowl.
Ensure the breadcrumbs are evenly coated with the seasoning for consistent flavor.
Cut the green chilies open, remove the seeds if desired, and lay them flat.
Removing the seeds reduces the spiciness of the chilies.
Fill each chili with shredded cheese and tomato slices.
Distribute the filling evenly among the chilies for uniform flavor.
Close the chilies and place them in the prepared dish.
Arrange the chilies snugly to keep the filling intact during cooking.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the chilies, followed by the remaining cheese.
For extra crunch, you can add a drizzle of olive oil over the breadcrumbs.
Microwave the dish for about 3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the dish to prevent overcooking.
Serve the stuffed chilies warm and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro for added freshness.
