GRILLED STUFFED JALAPENO CHILES

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 8 poppers

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 whole fresh jalapenos
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices center-cut smoked bacon

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas or charcoal grill or stovetop grill pan over high heat.
  • Grill the jalapenos until browned or blistered on all sides and slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, mix the cheese and oregano in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To remove the seeds from the jalapenos, make a crosswise cut at the stem end of each jalapeno, then slice lengthwise down the middle, being careful not to cut the jalapeno completely in half. Peel open the sides of each jalapeno and, using a spoon, gently scrape out the seeds and veins. Fill the cavities with 1 tablespoon of the cheese-oregano mixture. Wrap 1 slice of bacon tightly around each stuffed jalapeno to seal in the cheese.
  • Grill, starting the poppers on the side where the bacon-wrapping ends, until the bacon is crisp and fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for large, firm jalapeños with smooth skin. Avoid peppers with blemishes or bruises.
  • Wear gloves when handling peppers: The capsaicin in peppers can cause skin irritation, 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 peppers: This will help to reduce the heat of the peppers. You can use a spoon or a knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
  • Stuff the peppers with your favorite fillings: There are many different fillings that you can use to stuff jalapeños, such as cheese, meat, seafood, or vegetables. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Grill the peppers until they are tender: You can grill the peppers on a gas grill, a charcoal grill, or a stovetop grill pan. Cook the peppers over medium heat for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
  • Serve the peppers immediately: Stuffed jalapeños are best served hot, so enjoy them right away.

Conclusion:

Grilled stuffed jalapeño chiles are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a main course. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is a stuffed jalapeño for everyone. So next time you are looking for a fun and flavorful dish, give grilled stuffed jalapeño chiles a try.
