Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 medium jalapeno peppers
12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails intact
Kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 cup lager-style beer
Vegetable oil, for frying
Malt vinegar, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut off the tops of the jalapenos and scoop out the seeds. Pat the shrimp dry and generously season with salt. Insert 1 shrimp into each jalapeno, leaving the tail sticking out.
  • Whisk 3/4 cup flour, the cornstarch, Old Bay and beer in a medium bowl until smooth; set aside. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Whisk the remaining 3/4 cup flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl.
  • Working in batches, dredge the jalapenos in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beer batter, coating the shrimp and jalapeno completely. Fry, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through and the jalapenos are golden and crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; season with salt. Serve with malt vinegar.

Categories     Peppers

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

20 shrimp, peeled
2 slices bacon
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
12 large jalapenos
1/2 cup cream cheese
20 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Cut the tops off and remove the seeds of the jalapenos. Salt the peppers on the inside. Put the shrimp in head first, cram in some cream cheese in the opening around the shrimp.
  • Cut the bacon strips in quarters, place each quarter over the top of the jalapenos and put a toothpick through it to hold the bacon in place.Preheat oven to 375 or your barbecue and cook 1 hour until bacon is done.I have what they call a Chile Grill. You stick the peppers down in the hole of the Chile Grill and the filling will not run out of the pepper.
  • You can stuff these with anything from sausage,oysters,crab even groun beef.

Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp. Medium or large shrimp work best for this recipe. Avoid using small shrimp, as they will be difficult to stuff.
  • Prep the shrimp properly. Peel and devein the shrimp before cooking. You can also butterfly the shrimp for a larger stuffing area.
  • Use fresh jalapenos. Fresh jalapenos have a better flavor and texture than canned or pickled jalapenos. If you are using fresh jalapenos, be sure to wear gloves to protect your hands from the capsaicin.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of toppings. You can top the shrimp-stuffed jalapenos with a variety of toppings, such as cheese, breadcrumbs, or chopped cilantro.

Conclusion:

Shrimp-stuffed jalapenos are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. So next time you are looking for a new appetizer to try, give shrimp-stuffed jalapenos a try!
