Sour Cream-and-Onion Jalapeno Poppers image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
1 5-ounce package garlic-and-herb cheese spread (such as Boursin), at room temperature
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (about 6 ounces)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
12 medium jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded (stems intact)
8 cups sour cream-and-onion potato chips (about 7 ounces)
Cooking spray
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the onion to a bowl and add the sour cream, cheese spread, mozzarella, chives, onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir to combine; season with salt.
  • Spread about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture in each jalapeno half. Put the potato chips in a large resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin to make coarse crumbs.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and coat with cooking spray. Whisk the flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs in another shallow bowl. Combine the crushed chips with the paprika in a third bowl. Dredge each stuffed jalapeno in the flour, turning to coat, then dip in the egg mixture and coat with the potato chips, pressing to adhere. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, filling-side up, and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Try serving these poppers with a splash of malt vinegar.

GRILLED JALAPENO POPPERS



Grilled Jalapeno Poppers image

These are delicious as appetizers or include them on your beef or chicken kabobs. The smokiness of the bacon and the smokiness of your grill's charcoal is a wonderful combination. The cheese chills out the heat of the jalapeños leaving them just slightly hot. Dip them in Ranch dressing to chill the heat even more. Cream cheese is a perfect substitute for neufchatel cheese.

Categories     Pork

Time 50m

Yield 24 Poppers

Number Of Ingredients 3

12 fresh jalapenos
1 (8 ounce) package neufchatel cheese or 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
12 slices bacon

Steps:

  • Cut peppers in half.
  • Use a spoon to remove the seeds and white membranes.
  • Fill each half with the cheese.
  • Cut the bacon slices in half so that you have 24 shorter slices.
  • Wrap each cheese stuffed jalapeño with a bacon slice; secure with toothpicks if you need to or slide them on skewers.
  • Grill over hot coals until the bacon is crispy and browned, turning every few minutes (stay with them and watch for flare ups from the dripping bacon fat or they will burn); grill for about 15 or 20 minutes.
  • The bacon should be crisp, the jalapeño crisp tender and the cheese should be hot.

JALAPENO POPPER GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH



Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese Sandwich image

This is an awesome spin on a plain grilled cheese sandwich. Feel free to alter it to your liking. The ciabatta bread is not typical grilled cheese material but the crunch of the buttery grilled chewy bread goes perfect with this jalapeno filling. You can also use sourdough bread.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Grilled Cheese

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon sour cream
10 pickled jalapeno pepper slices, or to taste - chopped
2 ciabatta sandwich rolls
4 teaspoons butter
8 tortilla chips, crushed
½ cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and pickled jalapeno in a small bowl. Set aside. Preheat skillet over medium heat.
  • Slice each roll in half horizontally, then slice the rounded tops off the ciabatta rolls to make a flat top half. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on the doughy cut side of the bottom bun and 1 teaspoon butter on the now flattened top bun. Place half of the cream cheese mixture, half of the crushed chips, and half of the shredded cheese on the non-buttered side of the bottom bun. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich and place the sandwich on the hot skillet. Repeat with the second sandwich.
  • Grill until lightly browned and flip over, about 3 to 5 minutes; continue grilling until cheese is melted and the second side is golden brown.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for large, firm jalapeños with smooth skin and no blemishes. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Wear gloves when handling peppers: The oils from jalapeños can irritate your skin, so it's important to wear gloves when cutting and seeding them.
  • Remove the seeds from the peppers: To do this, cut the peppers in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the seeds and ribs. Be careful not to cut yourself.
  • Stuff the peppers with your desired filling: You can use a variety of fillings for your poppers, such as cheese, sausage, rice, or vegetables.
  • Wrap the peppers in bacon: This will help to keep the filling in place and add extra flavor to the poppers.
  • Bake or grill the poppers until they are cooked through: The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the peppers and the filling you are using.
  • Serve the poppers hot: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven or grill.

Conclusion:

Velveeta grilled jalapeño poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give these poppers a try.
