Try jalape?o poppers in the air fryer with a few flavor upgrades. Start with a Greek-style yogurt?based filling, then mix in your favorite cheese, seasoning, and fresh herbs for poppers with about 30 calories and 50 milligrams of sodium.
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese (Neufch?tel), softened
- ½ cup shredded Gouda cheese
- ¼ cup plain Greek-style yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1 tablespoon salt-free Italian seasoning
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound jalapeno peppers, halved and seeded
- 2 tablespoons whole-wheat panko bread crumbs
Directions
Step 1
For filling, stir together cream cheese, gouda, yogurt, oregano, Italian seasoning, and garlic in a bowl.
Step 2
Transfer filling to a piping bag (fitted with a tip) or a small zip-top plastic bag and snip off a corner. Pipe filling into each pepper half. Put panko in a small dish. Dip peppers, filling sides down, in panko to coat. Lightly coat panko with cooking spray.
Step 3
Preheat air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Air-fry peppers, panko sides up and working in batches as needed, until tender and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. f you like, garnish with additional fresh herbs.
Cook’s Note:
For a kid-friendly version, substitute 12 ounces mini bell peppers for the jalape?o peppers.
