Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2002. I copied this recipe in here because the original site does not offer the calorie count I am looking to know about the recipe. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/baked-jalapeno-poppers-recipe/index.html After fiddling with the recipe in this format, I have made a few modifications to make it a lower calorie recipe. First, no eggs, no milk, no flour, and only 1/4 cup of bread crumbs.

Categories     Cheese

Time 1h

Yield 12 Jalepenos, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise, stems, seeds and membranes removed
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
4 teaspoons Emeril's Original Essence
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
  • In a bowl, cream together the cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, cumin, and cayenne.
  • In a shallow dish, combine the panko crumbs and 4 teaspoons of Essence. Spread 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture into the middle of each jalapeno half.
  • One at a time, dredge in the panko crumbs, pressing to coat. You are only trying to cover the cheese, leave the peppers bare. If necessary, repeat the process.
  • Place the coated peppers, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the filling is runny and the crust is golden, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and serve immediately with cold beer.

I'm not a huge fan of jalapenos, but these poppers were actually really good! The cream cheese filling helped to tone down the heat of the peppers.

These poppers were a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the filling.

I love that this recipe is baked instead of fried. It's a much healthier way to enjoy jalapeno poppers.

These poppers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use a milder pepper.
