JALAPEñO POPPERS



Jalapeño Poppers image

There are many delicious versions of jalapeño poppers: Some are breaded and deep-fried, others use two kinds of cheese, and another, called armadillo eggs, calls for enrobing the cheese-stuffed peppers with ground meat and bacon. These easy-baked poppers are filled with tangy cream cheese - brightened with scallions, cilantro, garlic and lime zest - then wrapped with bacon for looks, salt and crunch. For a vegetarian variation, sprinkle the stuffed jalapeños with finely crumbled tortilla chips before baking to complement the crisp-tender chiles and the molten-cheese filling.

Time 1h

Yield 24 poppers

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 medium jalapeños (no longer than 3 inches each, about 2/3 pound total)
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
Scant 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
3 scallions, whites and greens parts, trimmed and very thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 lime, zested (about 1/2 teaspoon), optional
Kosher salt and black pepper
12 thin slices uncooked bacon (thick-cut bacon won't cook as evenly), halved crosswise

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, then top with a wire rack.
  • Halve jalapeños lengthwise. (Do your best to halve them through their stems for added visual appeal.) Using the tip of a small spoon, scoop out and discard the seeds. Set the halved jalapeños aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, cilantro, scallions, garlic and lime zest, if using; season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Season the inside of each halved jalapeño with salt and pepper, then fill each with about 2 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture. (Fill until there's a slight dome on top.) Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with 1 piece of bacon, setting one tip of bacon on top of the cream cheese filling, then wrapping the bacon under and over the popper at an angle, so the bacon covers the filling on top in two layers. (The bacon will shrink as it cooks, so you want to make sure the top of the popper is well covered.) Arrange poppers evenly on the wire rack, nestling each popper between two parallel wires to keep it upright so the cream cheese doesn't spill during baking.
  • Transfer to the oven, and bake until bacon is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Broil on the rack closest to the broiler until crisp, about 2 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm.

The flavor of the peppers come through, but the cheese and bacon put some of the fire out. I believe the "tenderfoot" would even like these. I have even frozen these with good success.

Pack extra flavour into these irresistible chillies with plenty of cream cheese and mozzarella. Ideal party food

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Side dish, Snack, Treat

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 jalapeno chillies (we used jalapeno but other mild green chillies would work)
150g full-fat cream cheese
50g grated mozzarella
30g plain flour
2 large eggs , lightly beaten
100g fresh breadcrumbs
oil for deep frying
To serve lime wedges (optional)

Steps:

  • Take one whole chilli and using a small sharp knife make an incision along the length without cutting all the way through. Open up the cavity and using the end of a teaspoon scrape out and discard the seeds and the membrane. It's very good idea to wear gloves when you're preparing chillies in this way, and make sure you wash your hands thoroughly afterwards. Repeat with all the other chillies.
  • Mix the cream cheese with the mozzarella, season with salt and pepper then use it to fill the chillies. Push them gently to close them up and wipe off any excess.
  • Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls or dishes and roll the stuffed chillies first in the flour then egg then breadcrumbs then repeat so they get a good double coating.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan until it reaches 160C. Carefully lower the chillies into the oil using a slotted spoon and deep fry in batches for around 2-3 mins or until deep golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper to soak up the excess oil.
  • Once the chillies are fried season them with pepper and salt and spread out on a plate or board so everyone can help themselves. Great with beer and a movie.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh, firm jalapeño peppers for the best flavor and texture.
  • Wear gloves: Capsaicin, the compound that gives jalapeños their heat, can irritate your skin. Wear gloves when handling the peppers to avoid burning your hands.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs: To reduce the heat of the peppers, remove the seeds and ribs. You can do this by using a sharp knife to cut the peppers in half lengthwise and then scooping out the seeds and ribs with a spoon.
  • Use a variety of fillings: There are many different fillings you can use for jalapeño poppers. Some popular options include cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, sausage, and shrimp.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the jalapeño poppers, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Serve immediately: Jalapeño poppers are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Jalapeño poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is sure to be a jalapeño popper that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a crowd-pleasing snack, give jalapeño poppers a try.
