BEST EVER JALAPENO POPPERS



Best Ever Jalapeno Poppers image

This is a recipe I made by taking the best of three or four popper recipes and combining them to make something that tastes wonderful. A frequent request at my house, and at others. I usually make 100 and put them in the fridge. They don't last long. Adjust the amount of bacon bits and type of shredded cheese to taste. Increase the recipe as necessary! Lots of tests helps to best figure out the way you like it. Be sure to wear rubber gloves while seeding the jalapenos -- they will burn.

Time 1h

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon bacon bits
12 ounces jalapeno peppers, seeded and halved
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup dry bread crumbs
2 quarts oil for frying

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your popcorn will taste.
  • Choose the right oil: Use an oil with a high smoke point, such as canola oil or grapeseed oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: Add just enough kernels to cover the bottom of the pot in a single layer.
  • Shake the pot constantly: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Remove the popcorn from the pot as soon as it stops popping: This will prevent it from burning.
  • Season the popcorn to taste: You can add salt, pepper, butter, or any other seasonings you like.

Conclusion:

Making plain brown popcorn is a quick and easy snack that is also a healthy alternative to other snacks. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy a delicious and satisfying snack that is perfect for any occasion.
