Roast the poblano peppers on the grill until blistered, rotating them to ensure even cooking.

Place the roasted peppers in a grocery bag to steam for a few minutes, which helps loosen the skin.

Peel the skin off the steamed peppers, scraping off any remaining bits.

Make a small incision in the top half of each pepper to remove the seeds, being careful not to tear the pepper.

Stuff the peppers with a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese, being cautious not to overfill to prevent tearing.

Dredge the stuffed peppers in flour to help the batter stick.

Prepare a batter by whisking egg whites until fluffy and at the right consistency for coating.

Dip the floured stuffed peppers into the egg white batter, ensuring they are well coated.

Carefully drop the battered peppers into a fryer and cook until golden brown.
