Steak Stuffed Jalapenos Recipe 55

STUFFED JALEPENOS

Steps:

• 1. Cook the sausage and crumble in to little tiny pieces and place in a medium sized bowl with the Cream Cheese. If you'd like, add spices or herbs--I like Sage, curry powder works well, Cumin works well, garlic powder, a little salt and pepper, or nothing works well too. Only about a 1/2 teaspoon though, because otherwise....well....eeeww! Mix it up really good and then stick it in the fridge while you work over the jalepenos
• 2. Slice the jalepenos in half and pull out the seeds. I suggest wearing a latex glove on one hand to hold the jalepenos, and using a spoon to scoop them out with the other, but if your brave and know you won't be rubbing your eyes, or going to the bathroom, go ahead and use your bare hands. If you visit the loo after doing this, and your privates feel like someone is rubbin em down with a brillo pad, don't say I didn't warn you to use gloves and a spoon.
• 3. If you want to pipe down the heat on the jalapenos, you can stick em in a bowl of ice water for a few hours. This will get them nice and crispy, and chill out the heat a bit. If you change the water a few times in that time, it cools them down even more. When I make these for parties, I soak them a good four hours. This summer I used Tam Jalepenos, which are purple and very mild.
• 4. Once the Jalapenos are stuffed you can either sprinkle with your favorite grated cheese, OR-- you can dredge in melted butter, and cover in bread crumbs and then sprinkle with your favorite cheese. I've also diluted honey with a little water, and used that as a dredge and covered in bread crumbs and sprinkled the cheese on it.
• 5. Bake at 425 for about 15 minutes, until the cheese melts and the bread crumbs get golden brown. If you use a soft cheese such as mozzarella or cheddar, I would get the bread crumbs crispy and then sprinkle the cheese on it. If you use a hard cheese like Asiago or Parmesan you can sprinkle before you bake.
• 6. I've also used a tempura batter and deep fried them, and added sprinkles of Asiago afterwords and mixed it in with the cream cheese, and that was really yummy. I was once tempted to wrap these in bacon-but my girlfriend wouldn't let me. She said it's man food enough without it. I'm not sure how much longer we will be together.

DEEP-FRIED STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Cut a short slit in the side of each jalapeno. Carefully scrape out as many seeds as possible, but avoid tearing or enlarging the slit. Stuff each of 8 jalapenos with about 1 teaspoon of refried beans. Stuff 8 more jalapenos with about 1 teaspoon peanut butter each. (The capacity of individual chiles will vary, but they should not be so full that the slits gape open.) Insert 1 strip of cheese into each of the 8 remaining chiles. On a plate, mix together the cornmeal, flour, and salt. In a small bowl, thoroughly whisk the eggs. One at a time, dip the jalapenos into the beaten egg and then roll them in the cornmeal mixture until well coated. Let the jalapenos stand on a rack for 30 minutes to firm the coating. In a deep fryer or in a wide, deep pan fitted with a deep-fry thermometer, heat about 4 inches of corn oil (the fryer or pan should be no more than half full) to 375 degrees. Working in batches and using a slotted spoon, lower the jalapenos into the hot oil. Fry, turning the chiles gently, until they are just crisp and golden, about 4 minutes. (Overcooking the chiles may cause the fillings to boil away.) With the slotted spoon, transfer the fried jalapenos to absorbent paper. Keep the chiles warm in a 250 degree oven until all have been fried. Serve them hot or warm, accompanied by sour cream for dipping.
