GUY ATTWOOD 1 cn Whole Ortega chilies
Monterey Jack cheese; grated 6 oz Crab;and/or cooked and diced
1/2 lb Very sharp cheddar cheese
-grated 3 Eggs
1/4 c Milk; please use whole milk
1 tb Bisquick; heaping
1 ts Flour; for dusting cheeses
Drain the chilies. Plan about 4 per person. Open each chili flat. In the bottom of a well buttered glass oven dish; place a layer of chilies. Dust the jack cheese with a small amount of flour. Mix together the crab and/or shrimp with the Jack cheese. Place a thin layer of this mix over the bottom layer of chilies. Place another layer of chilies on top and repeat process ending with a top layer of chilies. Cook in a 375*F oven for 7-10 minutes; uncovered. Remove from oven and reduce heat to 300*F. Mix together the batter–you may have to double the batter to be sure you cover the dish well–and pour over the chilies. Add the cheddar cheese and cook, COVERED, slowly in a 300*F oven until done. You will know it is done when a knife inserted in
the middle comes out relatively clean. If the center does not set up completely after about 30 minutes, don’t worry just serve it up with a salad and, I like corn with it.
