Anytime we go out to get chicken wings,
I like to get a side of Jalapeno poppers.
The crispy deep fried outside,
The warm cream cheese inside,
The Spicy jalapeno....
It's heavenly,
yet hellish on my
attempt to stay outta of the
maternity clothes! (at least for a few years)
So here is a version of the tasty appetizer
that is fit for a meal...
and it's baked, so you can keep
wearing your skinny jeans!
Ingredients:
(Sorry I don't use measurements, just use as much or as little as you want of each ingredient)
chicken breast (thawed)
Grated Cheddar Cheese
Cream cheese
Jalapeno slices (jar is better than fresh for this)
Ritz crackers
egg
salt
Steps:
Cut the chicken breast along one edge to form a little pocket
to stuff the cheeses in.
Chop the jalapenos into tiny pieces
Mix the cream cheese, grated cheddar cheese and chopped jalapenos together,
along with a little salt.
Put the cheese/Jalapeno mixture into the pocket of the chicken.
Whisk the egg in a bowl large enough to dip the chicken into.
Smash the Ritz crackers in a bowl large enough to dip the chicken into.
Dip the chicken into the egg mixture.
Dip the chicken into the cracker mix.
(repeat this step, to ensure a nice thick coat)
Bake the chicken a greased baking sheet
and flip the chicken half way thru cooking
Cook until center is completely white (no pink meat)
ENJOY!
