Description
The Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese sandwich takes ordinary grilled cheese to another level!
Ingredients
- 2 TBSP butter
- 4 slices bacon, cooked crispy
- 4 slices of Italian or french bread
- 2 slices sharp cheddar
- 4 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
- 1 slice monterey jack
- 2 jalapeños (Feel free to adjust to your taste.)
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cut Jalapeños in half lengthwise and bake in the oven for 15 minutes at 425 (Irecommend using gloves when working with Jalapeños)
- While jalapeños are roasting, cook your bacon and set aside
- Remove the seeds from the jalepenos and then dice them and add to a small mixing bowl
- In the same bowl, add in cream cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper
- Mix until combined (For easier spreading, ensure that the cream cheese is at room temperature!)
- Spread the jalapeño filling on 1 slice of bread and top with sharp cheddar cheese
- On the other slice of bread, add a slice of Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
- Add your bacon and stack sandwich slices together
- Generously butter the outside of the sandwich on both sides
Notes
If cheese is not completely melted, just pop in the oven at 400 degrees until cheese is melted
