Jalapeno & Shrimp Poppers
By: Bergy
Jan 30, 2006
Just wanting an appetizer and I had these lovely Jalapenos SOooo put on my thinking cap looked in the freezer and came up with this recipe - looks attractive and it really isn't all that spicy, the baking seems to take some of the heat out of the Jalapenos. These may be made ahead but wait to put the crumbs on top until just before baking. Artificial crab works well too. Some like to steam the jalapenos for 5 minutes first but I like to have a little crunch to them.
SERVES 2
Ingredients
- 4 large jalapeno peppers
- 4 large prawns, roughly chopped or 16 small shrimp, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon tartar sauce

Slice each Jalapeno in half lengthwise and remove the seeds & membrane.3

I used cream cheese and Pepper Jack cheese instead of the tarter sauce because I knew I liked the taste of the poppers with cream cheese. These were to die for! Nice heat and terrific flavor all in a pop in your mouth popper. Delicious appetizer that we will be having again, and next time I will double the recipe, they are SO GOOD! Thanka for sharing Bergy!

Great recipe Bergy! But, I did substitute one thing. Because I do not like tartar sauce, I used an equal amount of softened cream cheese instead. I also had to increase the recipe because my son can eat MANY of these! Easy to prepare,and pretty on the plate.Thanks for a new favorite of ours.

Great! I left out the chili flakes but added Old Bay seasoning along with the garlic powder. Thanks Bergy.
