Ingredients

  • 2 jars (12 ounces each) whole jalapeno peppers, drained
  • 1 jar (5 ounces) olive-pimiento cheese spread
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
  • 6 tablespoons cornmeal, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • Vegetable oil

Directions

  • Cut off stems and remove seeds from peppers. Stuff with cheese spread. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine 1/4 cup of flour, 2 tablespoons cornmeal, salt, pepper and buttermilk until smooth; set aside. In another shallow bowl, combine remaining flour and cornmeal. Dip stuffed peppers into buttermilk batter, then dredge in flour mixture.
  • In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry peppers, two or three at a time, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Yield: 2 dozen.

Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
