Stuffed Jalapeño Pepper Grilled Cheese image

This recipe is sponsored by Farm Rich®. To create an unforgettable grilled cheese, we leaned into the bold flavors of jalapeño poppers and spicy chorizo. The sausage is browned in a skillet, then layered with jalapeño poppers and creamy cheese on sliced Pullman bread. Cooked until golden on the outside and hot and melty within, this sandwich will definitely be a win on game day.

Time 40m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 5

One 18-ounce box frozen jalapeño poppers, such as Farm Rich® Jalapeño Peppers
12 ounces fresh Mexican-style chorizo, casing removed and crumbled (4 to 5 links)
Olive oil, as needed
12 slices Pullman bread
2 1/4 cups shredded Monterey jack, queso Oaxaca or whole milk mozzarella (about 10 ounces)

Steps:

  • Prepare the jalapeño poppers according to the package directions for the oven.
  • Meanwhile, put the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up with a wooden spoon, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chorizo to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon and pour the rendered fat into a small heatproof liquid measuring cup. You should have about 1/4 cup chorizo oil; if not, top with enough olive oil to reach 1/4 cup. Reserve the skillet.
  • Lay the bread slices on a cutting board and brush evenly with the chorizo oil on one side. Flip 6 slices over and top each with 3 tablespoons of the cheese. Divide the chorizo and jalapeño peppers evenly among the 6 slices and finish each with 3 more tablespoons of cheese. Close the sandwiches with the remaining 6 slices of bread, chorizo-oil-side up.
  • Heat the skillet over medium-low heat. Put 2 sandwiches in the skillet and press down with a large lid. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking, covered, until the cheese is melted and the second side is browned, about 3 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Use a sharp knife to slice each sandwich in half and serve.

I've tried this recipe several times and I can never get the grilled cheese to cook evenly. The jalapeños always burn before the cheese is melted.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The grilled cheese was good, but the jalapeños were a bit overwhelming.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll probably make it again with less jalapeños next time.
