Heat-Wave Jalapeno Poppers


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 361 Posts

Don't be afraid to try these. They're fun and tasty.

Ingredients:

  • jalapeno peppers (12 to 15, depending on size)
  • 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
  • Advertisement

  • 1 (8 oz.) package shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs
  • oil for frying

Directions:

Wash, halve, and seed the jalapenos. (Wear gloves to protect your hands.) For the filling, mix cream cheese with the shredded cheddar cheese. Stuff the pepper halves with the filling.

In a small bowl, combine egg and milk. Put flour in a second bowl. Dip the stuffed peppers in the milk mixture, then in the flour. Lay them on a wax-paper-lined tray to dry for about 10 to 15 minutes.

Put dry bread crumbs in a bowl. Dip the peppers in the milk/egg wash again, then in the bread crumbs. Let them dry for another 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat the last step one more time, then deep-fry in hot oil (365 to 375 degrees F) for about 3 to 4 minutes each, or until they're browned the way you like them. Drain on paper towels.

Makes: 24 to 30 Poppets

Note: Jalapenos are hard to coat, plus they are stuffed, so they really need the triple coating. This also works well for other fried veggies instead of plain bread crumbs.

I wonder if you have ever tried baking these instead of frying. I do not fry anything so would be interested in these as a baked item, as I really do like anything with Jalapeno peppers.
If I give it a try I will post at a later date.
