You'll love these bold and unique appetizers for your next gathering! The jalapeños bring the heat, the cheese the cool and the pork rinds the bacon-y crunch. It's a trio of flavors in every bite.
Ingredients:
4 oz. Southern Recipe Small Batch Pork Rinds, finely crushed
10 jalapeño peppers, stems removed
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
Directions:
Preheat BBQ or oven 400 degrees F.
Slice one side of each jalapeño pepper lengthwise and remove seeds with a spoon.
In a medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese and shredded cheese together. Fill each pepper half with the cream cheese filling.
Pour the crushed pork rinds onto a plate. Take each filled pepper, turn upside down and press the pepper into the pork rinds.
Place the peppers on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cooked throughly.
