JALAPENO POPPER GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH
This is an awesome spin on a plain grilled cheese sandwich. Feel free to alter it to your liking. The ciabatta bread is not typical grilled cheese material but the crunch of the buttery grilled chewy bread goes perfect with this jalapeno filling. You can also use sourdough bread.

Steps:
- Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and pickled jalapeno in a small bowl. Set aside. Preheat skillet over medium heat.
- Slice each roll in half horizontally, then slice the rounded tops off the ciabatta rolls to make a flat top half. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on the doughy cut side of the bottom bun and 1 teaspoon butter on the now flattened top bun. Place half of the cream cheese mixture, half of the crushed chips, and half of the shredded cheese on the non-buttered side of the bottom bun. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich and place the sandwich on the hot skillet. Repeat with the second sandwich.
- Grill until lightly browned and flip over, about 3 to 5 minutes; continue grilling until cheese is melted and the second side is golden brown.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the jalapenos with 1 tablespoon olive oil, some salt and pepper and lay skin-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the skin is blistered, 10 to15 minutes. Place in a plastic baggie for about 5 minutes loosen the skin. Pull off the skin, remove the majority of seeds and ribs, and slice. Set aside.
- Spread the mascarpone on 4 slices of bread and divide the Cheddar among the other 4 slices. Divide the sliced jalapenos among the 4 sandwiches. Close, and butter both sides of the bread.
- Heat half of the remaining oil on a flat griddle over medium heat. Grill one side of the sandwiches until golden. Remove, heat the remaining oil and repeat with the second side until golden and the insides are all melty and gooey.
Tips:
- Use fresh jalapeños. Fresh jalapeños have a better flavor and are less likely to be spicy. If you can't find fresh jalapeños, you can use canned or pickled jalapeños, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeños. This will help to reduce the spiciness of the peppers. If you want to keep some of the heat, you can leave some of the seeds and ribs in.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in this recipe, so be sure to use a cheese that you enjoy. I recommend using a sharp cheddar cheese, but you can use any type of cheese that you like.
- Cook the grilled cheese sandwich over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bread from burning and the cheese from melting too quickly.
- Serve the grilled cheese sandwich immediately. This is when it is at its best. You can serve it with a side of your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing.
Conclusion:
This jalapeño popper grilled cheese sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover jalapeños. If you are looking for a new and exciting grilled cheese sandwich recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
