Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Halve poblano peppers and quarter the yellow onion. Place them on a baking sheet along with whole corn cobs.
  3. Drizzle vegetables with olive oil and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until tender with charred edges.
  4. Dice the roasted peppers and onion. Remove corn from cobs.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine diced vegetables, cream cheese, sour cream, three-quarters of the cheddar cheese, adobo sauce, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Transfer mixture to a baking dish, spread evenly, and sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese on top. Bake for about 12 minutes.
  7. Broil for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the top is golden brown.
  8. Garnish with cilantro (if desired) and serve warm with tortilla chips, toasted bread, or fresh vegetable sticks.
