JALAPEñO POPPERS WITH BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Wearing gloves, slice each of the jalapeños in half lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the seeds and veins.
• In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cream cheese, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cheddar, bacon, and green onions.
• Spoon the mixture evenly in the jalapeños and place it on a baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until the jalapeños are tender.

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.

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.

Steps:

• Wash a wide-mouth pint mason jar and and its lid in hot soapy water. Then rinse and let air dry.
• Thinly slice the jalapeño peppers. Fill the jar with the slices.
• Peel the garlic cloves, leaving them whole. In a small saucepan, combine the garlic, vinegar, water, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and salt (this will take only a few minutes).
• Once boiling, pour the brine into the jar (including the bay leaf). Tap the jar on the counter to release any air bubbles. Discard any remaining brine, or top off the jar with extra water if any peppers are exposed at the top.
• Screw on the lid tightly and allow to cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Eat immediately, or refrigerate until serving. Keeps up to 1 month refrigerated.

BEST EVER JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and bacon bits. Spoon this 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.

STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together cream cheese and cheddar. Season with salt and pepper. With a small spoon, fill each jalapeno half with about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture. Place peppers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until cheese is browned and bubbling, about 10 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through.

LOADED STUFFED JALAPEñOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Place the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the chorizo until mostly cooked, and break into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Then move the chorizo to a paper towel lined bowl to drain.
• Cut the jalapeños lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the veins and seeds. Set them cut-side-up on the baking sheets. Then mix the cream cheese, smoked cheddar, and garlic powder in a medium bowl until well combined.
• Spread 1 tablespoon of cheese filling into each jalapeño half. Press crumbled chorizo into the top of the cheese filling. Bake for 9-10 minutes until the filling has melted and the peppers are soft.
• While the jalapeños are still warm, sprinkle the tops with crumbled queso fresco and green onions. Serve warm.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH ORANGE-JALAPEñO SLAW

Steps:

• Put the scallops on a paper towel-lined plate and pat dry with more paper towels. Transfer to a medium bowl and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander; season with salt and pepper. Toss well.
• Using a sharp paring knife, slice the skin off the oranges. Working over a bowl to catch the juice, slice between the membranes of the oranges and remove the segments. Transfer the orange segments to a large bowl.
• Make the dressing: Add 1 tablespoon of the orange juice to a small bowl along with the lime juice, fish sauce, remaining 1 teaspoon coriander, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Whisk to combine and set aside. Add the cabbage, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño and peanuts to the large bowl with the oranges and set aside.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops in an even layer. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Flip the scallops and cook until opaque, about 2 more minutes.
• Add the dressing to the cabbage-orange slaw and toss well to coat; season with salt and pepper. Divide the slaw among plates and top with the scallops.
