The following recipe and photography were provided by Christina Musgrave of Tasting with Tina.
Seasonal Hatch Chiles take center stage in this flavor-packed side dish!
Traditional corn pudding is delicious, but the combination of sweet corn, savory bacon and mildly spicy New Mexico-grown Hatch Chiles takes the eating experience to a new level without adding any complicated prep work.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- It’s a great way to use Hatch Chiles while they’re in season. Hatch Chiles are grown in Hatch, New Mexico and are available at Heinen’s for a short time each summer. They range in heat and can be purchased roasted or raw for all of your cooking needs. They’re also easy to freeze, so stock up during the season to enjoy all year long.
- It’s a versatile dish. Serve this as a side for a summer BBQ, or even as a savory breakfast!
- It’s customizable. If Hatch Chiles aren’t in season, or of you prefer a milder pepper, green peppers will work just as well.
