Ingredients
- 18 large jalapeño peppers
- 1 1/4 cups finely grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup chopped corn kernels
- 2 Tbs. minced green onion, white and green portions
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cut 1/4 inch off the top of each jalapeño pepper; reserve the tops. Using a pepper corer or a thin knife, hollow out the centers of the peppers, removing the seeds and ribs; do not cut through the flesh.
- Prepare a grill for indirect grilling over medium-high heat.
- In a bowl, stir together the cheese, corn and green onion, and season with salt and pepper. Stuff the center of each pepper with 1 to 2 Tbs. of the cheese mixture, filling to within 1/8 inch of the top of the pepper. Place the filled peppers upright in a jalapeño pepper roaster and set the cut tops back on top of the peppers.
- Place the pepper roaster on the grill over indirect heat and cover the grill. Roast until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes.
- Transfer the jalapeño poppers to a platter and serve immediately. Makes 18 jalapeño poppers.
