Roast poblano chiles over the fire until charred on both sides.

Place roasted chiles in a plastic bag to sweat and make peeling easier.

Remove skin, seeds, and stems from the chiles and cut into small squares.

In a hot pan, add 2 tablespoons of butter and the chopped onion, garlic, and poblano chiles.

Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes until fragrant.

Transfer the cooked vegetables to a blender.

Add cream cheese, sour cream, chicken bouillon (or salt), milk, and cilantro to the blender.

Blend for 3-4 minutes until smooth and green.

Return the blended sauce to the pan and cook on low heat until creamy and thick.

In a separate pot, boil water with salt and a little vegetable oil.

Add linguine pasta and cook until al dente, about 5 minutes.

Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain the spaghetti.

Add the drained spaghetti to the sauce in the pan, along with the reserved pasta water.

Mix well and raise the heat to medium until bubbles form in the sauce.

Serve with grated Parmesan cheese on top.
