1 quart oil, for frying
10 jalapeno chile peppers
1 C. softened cream cheese
2 Tbsps chopped fresh cilantro
1 Tbsp minced garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
3 eggs, beaten
1 C. Italian-style seasoned bread crumbs
Preheat broiler. Heat oil in a large heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F. Arrange jalapeno chile peppers on a medium baking sheet. Place in the broiler approximately 5 minutes, turning once until lightly browned. Remove from heat and place in a small airtight container. In a medium bowl whip together cream cheese, cilantro, garlic, salt and pepper. Place eggs in a small bowl. Place Italian style breadcrumbs in a seperate small bowl. Remove jalapenos from container one at a time and remove the skin and stems. Cut the tops off and remove seeds. Stuff each pepper with equal amounts of cream cheese mixture. Roll in eggs then coat with breadcrumbs. In batches, deep fry stuffed peppers in the prepared oil for 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
OR
Go to your local Costco and pick up a box of frozen poppers and bake! :)
Just want to give you options.
