Fried Jalapenos
Report
Fried jalapenos make a great gameday appetizer. Sometimes also called bottle caps these are crispy, crunchy, and packs a spicy punch! Jalapeno slices are coated in beer batter and deep-fried to golden perfection. Spicy, very addictive snack or appetizer that everyone loves! Plus, it’s very easy to make using a few basic ingredients.

Ingredients
- 8-10 jalapeños
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt*
- 1 large egg
- 1 can 12-ounce beer
- vegetable oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Heat oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven. While oil is heating up, prep jalapenos and batter.
- Trim the ends off, and slice jalapenos into thin rings.
- Make beer batter – In a large bowl whisk flour, baking powder, and seasoning salt. Break an egg into the flour mix and whisk.
- Pour cold beer into the batter and whisk. Be careful not to overmix the batter, overmixing will activate gluten and compromise on the crispiness making it tough and chewy.
- Make sure the oil temperature reaches 350F before frying. Measure oil temperature using a kitchen thermometer. In small batches dip jalapeno slices in batter, shake off excess batter, and deep fry in oil.
- Do not overcrowd the pan, fry them in batches.
- Flip once golden on one side. Should fry to golden brown on both sides in 5-6 minutes.
- Once golden brown remove fried jalapenos using a slotted spoon, and drain on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
- Before you fry the next batch, ensure oil is maintained at 350F.
- Serve it immediately with a dipping sauce of your choice.
Notes
- *Seasoning salt is simple to make at home. It's something you can make and keep near the stove to use on everything!
- You can make it with any spices and herbs you like to add, here's my simple all-purpose seasoning salt recipe - mix kosher salt, ground pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper.
