Ingredients

Servings
  • 12 jalapeños
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 tsp garlic minced
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese sharp, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons chives divided, chopped fresh
  • ¼ cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and use a small spoon to scoop out the seeds and membranes on each jalapeño half.
  3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, garlic, cheddar cheese and 1 tablespoon of chives.
  4. Spoon the cheese mixture evenly into each jalapeño half.
  5. In a separate bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs and melted butter.
  6. Top each jalapeño half with the breadcrumb mixture.
  7. Place on a baking pan and bake for 15-18 minutes until the topping is golden brown.
  8. Let the jalapeños rest for 10 minutes. Top with the remaining chives and then the poppers are ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Wear gloves when slicing the jalapeños to avoid the capsaicin getting on your skin and causing a burning sensation.  
  • Usually jalapeños are not too spicy once all the seeds are removed, if you want spicier poppers, leave some of the seeds in.  
  • Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
