1 tsp. baking powder 
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus 1/2 teaspoon 
12 ounces  Mexican beer 
2 Tbl. extra-virgin olive oil 
2 Tbl. finely chopped green onions 
1 clove minced garlic 
1 1/2 cups roasted corn kernels 
Fresh ground black pepper 
1/2 cup grated pepper jack cheese

cut kernels off the cob and set aside.
2) Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and garlic, and cook until 
soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the corn kernels. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Allow to cool,

3) Make an incision the length of each chile and remove the stems and seeds. Stuff corn filling 
into chilies, and close with a toothpick.
