Time 1h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

24 pickled jalapeno peppers
1 pound Cheddar cheese
½ cup yellow cornmeal
½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups corn oil for frying

Steps:

  • Cut a short slit into each jalapeno pepper. Remove as many seeds as possible. Slice Cheddar cheese into approximately 1/4 inch by 1 inch strips. Stuff each jalapeno with a Cheddar cheese strip.
  • Place beaten eggs in a small bowl.
  • In a small dish, mix yellow cornmeal, flour and salt.
  • One at a time, dip jalapenos in the eggs. Roll in the yellow cornmeal mixture until well coated. Arrange on a metal rack, and allow them to sit approximately 30 minutes.
  • Heat corn oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In small batches, using a slotted spoon, lower peppers into the heated oil, and fry until crisp and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

I've never had stuffed jalapenos before, but these were amazing! The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the peppers were perfectly crispy.

These were good, but I found them to be a bit too spicy. Next time, I'll use milder peppers.

These were a hit at our party! I used a variety of cheeses, including cheddar, mozzarella, and pepper jack. I also added some cooked bacon to the filling. They were so good that they were gone in minutes!
