DECONSTRUCTED JALAPENO POPPERS BALLS
My favorite part of a jalapeno popper was always the cream crease and the fried breading. This recipe is super easy and lets the cream cheese play a bigger role. **Please note the preparation time is mostly chilling time. Confession, I am a huge wimp when it comes to hot food and as this recipe is written, it's a little more spicy than I'd prefer. But with fewer peppers you lose a lot of the flavor. If you love heat, you can add more jalapenos or use fresh instead of jarred which are usually much hotter. I serve with a mild salsa and ranch dip, both go well with flavors and texture.

Steps:
- Mix softened cream cheese, jalapenos and salt together. (I often further chop the diced jalapenos, but that's a personal preference).
- Refrigerate at least 30 minutes to an hour.
- Roll approximately a tablespoon worth of the mixture into a ball, then roll in the breadcrumbs. Repeat with the rest of the cream cheese mixture.
- Beat the two eggs in a shallow bowl.
- Dip each coated ball into the egg and then roll again in the breadcrumbs.
- Line up the twice coated balls on a cookie sheet coated with cookie spray. I use parchment paper as well to help with clean-up.
- Refrigerate the finished balls for at least another hour, up to overnight.
- Cooked at 375 for 5-8 minutes. The crumbs should just start to brown and the coating crack a little, but the cheese should not be melting out.
- They hold up best if you let them sit for a couple minutes before eating.
Tips:
- Choose the right jalapeños. Look for fresh, firm jalapeños that are deep green in color. Avoid any jalapeños that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Wear gloves when handling jalapeños. The capsaicin in jalapeños can irritate your skin, so it's best to wear gloves when handling them. If you do get capsaicin on your skin, wash it off with soap and water immediately.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeños. This will help to reduce the heat level of the poppers. You can use a spoon or a paring knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
- Stuff the jalapeños with your favorite fillings. Some popular fillings include cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and sausage. You can also add spices, such as chili powder or cumin, to taste.
- Bread the jalapeños. This will help to keep the filling inside the poppers and will also make them crispy. You can bread the jalapeños in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs, or you can use a commercial breading mix.
- Fry the jalapeños. Fry the jalapeños in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. You can also bake the jalapeños in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes.
- Serve the jalapeños with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and sour cream.
Conclusion:
Deconstructed jalapeño poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover jalapeños. With a little creativity, you can create your own unique deconstructed jalapeño poppers that everyone will love.
