- 3 poblano peppers, halved lengthwise
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup long-grain rice
- 1 large onion, chopped, divided
- 1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tomatoes, cored and chopped
- 1/2 lime, zested and juiced
- 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro, divided
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup frozen roasted corn (such as Trader Joe's®), thawed
- 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend
- Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place poblano peppers, cut sides down, onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 6 minutes. Wrap peppers in the aluminum foil from the baking sheet. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 15 minutes. Remove and discard skins and seeds. Chop into bite-size pieces.
- Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in ground pork, chicken broth, rice, 1/2 the onion, taco seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a boil.
- Bake, covered, in the preheated oven until pork is no longer pink and rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Combine the remaining onion, tomatoes, lime zest, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon cilantro in a small bowl. Season salsa with salt and pepper.
- Stir the roasted poblano peppers, remaining cilantro, and corn into the baked pork-rice dish. Sprinkle cheese blend on top; let stand until melted, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle the salsa on top.
