Grilled Stuffed Jalapeños

By Derrick Riches, About.com

The secret to great stuffed jalapeños, is getting really big, green peppers. These will have a milder flavor and give you the space to stuff as much flavor as possible.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 12 large jalapeños
  • For filling:
  • 1 cup cooked chicken
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup white wine (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Preparation:

Preheat grill for low setting. Put on a pair of latex or kitchen gloves before preparing jalapeños. Slice each jalapeño in half lengthwise and remove seeds and veins with spoon. Set aside. Combine filling ingredients in a medium bowl. Spoon roughly 2 tablespoons on mixture into jalapeño halves. Place peppers onto grill and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until bottoms of jalapeño begin to char. Remove from grill and serve.
