Red anaheims can be used as you would most other varieties of fresh chilies. Red anaheims are particularly good pickled, stuffed for chile rellenos, or roasted and blended into sauces. Before cooking with them their inner ribs and seeds should be removed, and their stems shouldn’t be eaten.

Like poblanos, Anaheim chilies can be easily roasted whole on a grill or gas stove. See How to Roast Chiles for a tutorial.

Red Anaheim chilies are frequently paired with ingredients like cilantro, lime, beans (pinto, black turtle, anasazi, appaloosa), cheese (jack, cheddar, queso fresco & other Mexican varieties), tortillas, chicken, beef, and pork.
