Ingredients
- 12 jalapeño peppers
- 4 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 ounces feta cheese
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
- Prep the jalapeños: Halve the peppers lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes.
- Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, feta cheese, cream cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, and cilantro until well mixed.
- Stuff the peppers: Carefully fill each jalapeño half with the cheese mixture, but be careful not to overstuff them.
- Arrange on the baking sheet: Place the stuffed jalapeños closely together on the prepared baking sheet to prevent them from rolling.
- Roast: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
- Broil for a finish: For a golden top, broil the jalapeño poppers for an additional couple of minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
- Serve: Use a spatula to transfer the poppers to a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. Serve immediately for the best taste!
