Traditional Pork Posole Recipe

Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Place the peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.

Allow the peppers to steam as they cool about 20 minutes. Remove plastic wrap and carefully remove and discard pepper skins. Dice peppers.
