This year was the first year that my jalepeno plant did well, so I made some jalepeno poppers. I've made them before with store bought jalepeno's, but fresh are so much better. If you like spicy here's a recipe for you!

Stuffed Jalepenos

whole jalepenos
1 can chunk chicken
1 pkg cream cheese
1 small onion finely chopped
1 tsp fresh chopped garlic
1 package egg roll wrappers
Oil for frying
1 pair rubber gloves
*you can also make these with jack cheese, pepper cheese, just slice a piece of cheese and stuff it into the jalepeno before wrapping

Make sure you put on the rubber gloves first when cleaning these and preparing.
Cut top end off jalepeno, make a lengthwise slice into and scrape out seeds/membrane with small knife or I used my thumbnail
Rinse well until all seeds are gone.
Mix cream cheese together with the rest of the ingredients.
Stuff jalepenos with cream cheese mixture. Over stuffing is fine.
Wrap jalepeno in egg roll.

Heat up oil over medium heat... drop jalepenos into hot oil. They'll rise to the top when they're done on one side, roll over to other side for a minute or till golden brown. Drain. Cool and enjoy!!

If you eat a really spicy one and you can't get the spice to calm down, eat a piece of bread. It will absorb the oil/spice of the jalepeno.
