Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Place the peppers directly on the medium flame of a gas stove and turn every minute or so, until all sides are slightly charred. If you do not have a gas stove, place the peppers on a baking sheet and broil in the oven, turning every couple of minutes to ensure all side get slightly charred.
Once the peppers are charred, put them immediately in a covered bowl or a large ziplock bag and allow them to sit approx 5-10 minutes.
Once the peppers have cooled, gently rub off the skin with a paper towel and then cut a slit down the middle to remove the seeds (I also cut off the tops of the peppers to make it easier)
Stuff each pepper with 3 oz turkey or chicken and 1 oz goat cheese and place in a lightly greased 3 quart baking dish
After the peppers are stuffed, pour salsa verde over the peppers
Cover and bake 20-25 minutes
Garnish with cilantro and serve
