Baked Jalapeño Poppers Food

ROASTED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut 1/3 of each pepper off lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place on a baking sheet. If peppers do not sit flat on the baking sheet, slice a thin piece off the bottom of the pepper so it will not roll around.
• Mash the feta, cream cheese, shredded cheese, cilantro, and onion together and stuff the peppers with the mixture. Roast for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is brown at the edges and bubbly.

BAKED JALAPEñO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up. Cut off one-third of each pepper lengthwise (see photos). Use a small spoon (a serrated grapefruit spoon works great) to scoop out the seeds and membranes from each pepper, and discard those pieces.
• In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and green onion, garlic powder, onion powder and salt. Stir to combine.
• Stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture (you might have a small amount left over). Top each of the peppers with a small mound of cheese lengthwise.
• Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and starting to turn golden.
• Meanwhile, place a big handful of chips in a food processor and process until the chips are broken into tiny pieces (or, you can crush them under a rolling pin). Stir the feta, if using, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of cilantro and green onion into the chips.
• Transfer the jalapeño poppers to a large serving dish and top each pepper with the crushed chip mixture. Serve!

BAKED JALAPENO POPPERS

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 small bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, and 2 teaspoons of the Essence. In a shallow dish, combine the panko crumbs and remaining 4 teaspoons of Essence. In a third dish, combine the flour and remaining 2 teaspoons of Essence. Spread 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture into the middle of each jalapeno half. One at a time, dredge in the flour, dip into the egg mixture, then dredge in the panko crumbs, pressing to coat. 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.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

BREADED JALAPENO POPPERS

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.

JALAPENO POPPERS

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.

• In another dish, mix together the breadcrumbs and 4 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• Using gloves, fill each pepper with about a tablespoon of filling depending on the size of the pepper. I find filling all the peppers first before moving on to the next step works best for me.
• Dip each filled pepper into the flour, then into the egg mixture and finally into the breadcrumbs.
• At this point the peppers can be frozen on cookie sheets. Just pop into the oven frozen when you need them.
• Cook at 350°F for 30 minutes on a greased pan. Easy release foil or parchment paper works well too.
