UNBREADED JALAPENO POPPERS WITH DOUBLE CHEESE!



Unbreaded Jalapeno Poppers With Double Cheese! image

My friend Mandy made these for a holiday party and I could not stop eating them! With only 4 ingredients, they are a snap to make. I like them because they are not breaded and they are baked instead of being fried for a carb healthy snack. You can use light cream cheese and light cheddar cheese to cut some of the fat, too, but I'm posting the full fat version that I originally tasted. I promise that you will not be able to resist these little puppies!

Time 30m

Yield 50 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

25 fresh jalapeno peppers (on the small side)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 (16 ounce) package bacon (you may not use all of it)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450.
  • Cut stems off of peppers and cut them in half lengthwise.
  • Remove the seeds and veins from the peppers (you may want to wear gloves to keep the oils off of your hands).
  • When finished, make sure you rinse the peppers so the oils are removed from the outside of the pepper.
  • Fill each pepper half with cream cheese. If using large peppers, you may have to use more cream cheese than listed above.
  • Cut the slices of bacon to fit on top of each pepper.
  • Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top. If you keep them next to each other in a bunch on the cookie sheet, it is easier to sprinkle the cheese on top and keep it there instead of having it fall off and burn on the cookie sheet. Just make sure you separate the cheese carefully when they are done baking and still warm.
  • Bake until bacon is fully cooked, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove and serve when cooled. (They can be made the night before and stored in an air tight container in the fridge).

BEST EVER JALAPENO POPPERS



Best Ever Jalapeno Poppers image

This is a recipe I made by taking the best of three or four popper recipes and combining them to make something that tastes wonderful. A frequent request at my house, and at others. I usually make 100 and put them in the fridge. They don't last long. Adjust the amount of bacon bits and type of shredded cheese to taste. Increase the recipe as necessary! Lots of tests helps to best figure out the way you like it. Be sure to wear rubber gloves while seeding the jalapenos -- they will burn.

BAKED CREAM CHEESE JALAPENO POPPERS



Baked Cream Cheese Jalapeno Poppers image

After a number of unsatisfactory attempts at making deep-fried poppers, I modified a recipe by Emeril that is much easier than frying and everyone in our family agrees that these are at least as good as -- if not better than -- any fried poppers they have had! We love hot peppers and always make a lot of these from the ones we grow in our garden every year.

BREADED JALAPENO POPPERS



Breaded Jalapeno Poppers image

Best poppers I've ever eaten. These freeze very well after frying, so you can make them ahead of time for a party and just reheat them.

Provided by Geema

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h15m

Yield 50 poppers

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 (8 ounce) package shredded monterey jack pepper cheese
25 jalapeno peppers, seeded and halved
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup dry breadcrumbs
oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Remember to wear some disposable gloves when working with jalapeno peppers-- and don't touch your face!
  • If you don't have any plastic gloves, I have slipped my hands into baggies to protect them from the oils that can really burn and sting for hours.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, and pepper jack cheese.
  • In a pot of barely simmering water, blanch the pepper halves for 2 minutes, drain and dry thoroughly.
  • Spoon mixture into the jalapeno pepper halves.
  • Put the milk and flour into two separate small bowls.
  • Dip the stuffed jalapenos first into the milk then into the flour, making sure they are well coated with each.
  • Allow the coated jalapenos to dry for about 10 minutes.
  • Dip the jalapenos in milk again and roll them through the breadcrumbs.
  • Allow them to dry, then repeat to ensure the entire surface of the jalapeno is coated.
  • In a medium skillet, heat the oil to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Deep fry the coated jalapenos 2 to 3 minutes each, until golden brown.
  • Remove and let drain on a paper towel.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Jalapenos: Select firm and plump jalapenos with smooth skin and a deep green color. Avoid any with blemishes or bruises.
  • Properly Clean and Deseed Jalapenos: Wear gloves to protect your hands from the jalapeno's oils. Cut each jalapeno in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the seeds and ribs. Rinse the jalapenos thoroughly under cold water to remove any remaining seeds or membranes.
  • Use a Variety of Cheeses: For a classic flavor combination, use a blend of cream cheese and cheddar cheese. For a spicy kick, add some pepper jack cheese. For a smoky flavor, try using smoked gouda or mozzarella cheese.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Baking Sheet: Place the jalapeno poppers on a baking sheet with enough space between each one to ensure even cooking.
  • Keep an Eye on the Jalapeno Poppers: Bake the jalapeno poppers until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the jalapenos are slightly tender. Overcooking can make the jalapenos mushy.
  • Serve Immediately: Jalapeno poppers are best served hot and fresh out of the oven. Enjoy them as an appetizer or snack.

Conclusion:

Unbreaded jalapeno poppers with double cheese are a delightful and easy-to-make appetizer that is sure to impress your guests.
