Pheasant Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers Recipes

JOE'S SCREAMING STUFFED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill.
• Mix each package of cream cheese with chopped garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and a dash of chopped basil. Add a pinch of salt. Mix until mixture is soft and manageable.
• Slice each jalapeno lengthwise on 1 side, being careful not to cut the jalapeno in 1/2. Remove the seeds if you don't think your friends can handle the heat, otherwise leave'em and enjoy watching your friends shed a few extra tears. hehe... Depending on your pepper, you may have to slice around the stem of the pepper to create a manageable opening to squeeze the filling in.
• Fill either a pastry bag, or your choice of tools with the filling. Use something that will allow you to sqeeze the filling into the opening of the pepper with ease. I've used a plastic frosting tool, cookie press, and even just a small spoon to squeeze the filling in. However you choose, insert a liberal amount of filling into each jalapeno. Be careful not to overfill as the filling may spurt out during cooking.
• Wrap each pepper with 1 to 2 strips of bacon, securing the opening in the pepper. Secure the bacon with a toothpick (best to soak the toothpicks first, to prevent burning on the BBQ). This also helps the jalapenos from falling into the BBQ (you're bound to loose at least 1, oh well). Long metal or wood skewers also work well for large amounts.
• BBQ the peppers until they lightly roasted, or until the bacon is fully cooked. Use some foil to cook on if your peppers are cooking or burning too fast on a HOT BBQ.
• Serve 'em up and watch your friends squirm with delight!

LOADED STUFFED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water and set aside. Slice a thin piece from the bottom of each pepper to stop peppers from rolling onto their sides when baking.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Drop each pepper carefully into the water and boil 2 minutes. Remove peppers from water and place in the bowl of ice water.
• Cook turkey sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 3 minutes. Drain excess fat. Stir in Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, ranch-flavored seasoning, and garlic.
• Remove peppers from water and drain. Fill each pepper with sausage mixture, forming a mound. Place filled peppers on a baking sheet; place in the freezer until just frozen, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix bread crumbs with butter. Press into the top of the sausage filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bread crumbs are golden brown and cheese starts to bubble, 25 to 30 minutes.

BACON-WRAPPED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Mix cream cheese and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl until evenly blended. Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture. Put halves back together and wrap each stuffed pepper with a slice of bacon. Arrange bacon-wrapped peppers on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy, about 15 minutes.

PHEASANT STUFFED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat grill over medium-high heat. Wash peppers and slice in half cross ways and remove the seeds. Mix cream cheese with herbs, spices and green onions. Slice the pheasant thinly. Stuff the jalapenos loosely with the cheese mixture and sliced pheasant. Wrap peppers with 1/2 slice of bacon. Place 4 pepper halves on a skewer and grill until done, about 8 minutes.

CHEESE-STUFFED JALAPEñO POPPERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Cut the top off each jalapeño and core it, scraping out all the seeds, with the back side of a spoon.
• Fill the jalapeños with pepper jack cheese, either melted or cubed.
• Place the top back on the jalapeños and secure with two toothpicks inserted diagonally.
• NOTE: Be sure each toothpick goes through both the top and the bottom of the jalapeño to secure it.
• Dredge in flour, eggs, then breadcrumbs. For a thicker breading, double bread the jalapeños by repeating the egg and breadcrumb dredging.
• Heat oil to 325°F (160°C).
• Fry each jalapeño popper until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes).
• Cool and allow extra oil to drip off on a plate lined with paper towels. Remove the toothpicks.
• Season with salt and serve immediately once cooled enough to handle.
• Enjoy!
