LOADED STUFFED JALAPEñOS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Place the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the chorizo until mostly cooked, and break into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Then move the chorizo to a paper towel lined bowl to drain.
- Cut the jalapeños lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the veins and seeds. Set them cut-side-up on the baking sheets. Then mix the cream cheese, smoked cheddar, and garlic powder in a medium bowl until well combined.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of cheese filling into each jalapeño half. Press crumbled chorizo into the top of the cheese filling. Bake for 9-10 minutes until the filling has melted and the peppers are soft.
- While the jalapeños are still warm, sprinkle the tops with crumbled queso fresco and green onions. Serve warm.

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

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.
