Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers

This is a great appetizer for your next get together. It is simple, easy and delicious. 

Ingredients

Chicken - 1 cup cooked (rotisserie, canned, or leftover)
Cream Cheese - 1/2 block (room temperature)
Sour Cream - 2 tablespoons
Green chilli peppers - 2 tablespoons

Salsa - 1/4 cup
Jalapeno - 4 peppers
Cheddar cheese - 4 oz

Preparation

Cut your peppers lengthwise, clean out all the seeds and remove any excess membrane. Grate your cheddar cheese.

Place your cream cheese, chicken, and green chilli peppers in a bowl. Using a hand mixer beat together on medium until all of the cream cheese is incorporated. Add to bowl salsa and sour cream. Mix on medium until all are blended well. 

Add 1/2 of your grated cheese and mix one last time. 

Evenly distribute mixture filling to each pepper. Top with remaining cheese. Cook in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. 

Variations

Add monterey jack or white cheddar to the mix, top with a dollop of sour cream, or serve with some warm queso for dipping.

You can easily prepare this 1 - 2 days in advance storing the unbaked mixture in the refrigerator, then fill your peppers and bake when ready to serve. 

Enjoy!
