Jalapeno Poppers

Jalapeno Poppers

8 Jalapeno, halved and seeded

3 tbsp cream cheese, softed

3 tbs cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 C milk

1 C crushed panko

1/3 C flour

oil for deep frying

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese with the cheddar cheese. Spoon the mixture into the jalapeno halves. Dip the stuffed jalapeno first into milk and then into the flour. Wait for several minutes for the flour dry out slightly. Then, dip it into the milk again and now into the crushed panko. You can repeat the milk & panko step twice to get a nice thicker panko crust. Wait for the coat to dry out slightly between the steps. In a medium pan, heat the oil to 365F and deep fry the jalapeno for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
