Ingredients

1	can	green chili peppers	ortega, whole
1	x	monterey jack cheese	grated
6	ounces	crab meat	cooked, diced
1/2	pound	cheddar cheese, very old, sharp	grated
3	large	eggs
1/4	cup	milk	whole
1	tablespoon	biscuit baking mix (bisquick)	heaping
1	teaspoon	flour, all-purpose	for dusting cheeses

Directions

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 degree F oven for 7-10 minutes; uncovered.

Remove from oven and reduce heat to 300 degrees 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 degree 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.
