How Hot Can You Handle?

     
These dark green peppers don’t look like much but take a bite and they are a powerful punch in the mouth. So, be advised.
 
         So I came across this great recipe on food.com called Jalapeno-Lime Chicken a few years back that I would definitely recommend trying. For beginner cooks, this delectable bite is simple, very appetizing, and healthy –Shhh, for the whole family. As for you nutty kitchen enthusiast’s, this one reminds us why we love to cook with chicken so much and the amazing jalapeno pepper at one of its best moments…I mean tastes.

I would definitely recommend marinating it for at least 30 minutes. Also, if you are on short time like I was to conjure a meal, I’d poke a few holes in the chicken as it is trying to soak up the juices.

There was no need for the olives though they were a fantastic idea. However, I tried to make the spice mixture into more of a sauce. I squeezed more lime into the bowl than required and even thought about blending in some cream cheese. However, without any changes to this recipe it is fantastic all the same.

If after this meal, there are leftover whole green peppers you may also want to try making a quick…Stuffed Jalapeno...and if your looking for some new ingrediants to add in them put some cooked italian sausage and chopped onions into the peppers then top with cream cheese and wrapped with bacon.

Stuffed Jalapeno Wrapped in a Blanket:

-5 to ? Jalapenos cut in half and seeded (the questions mark is for depending  on how hungry you are or how many servings but you can decide as you cut each one)

-bacon cut into smaller slices by half

-cream cheese (you can get low fat or something to make healthy, same as the meat)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 375 degree Fahrenheit. After cutting and seeding the peppers place them onto a cookie sheet. Next, stuff each one of those fiery little guys with the sweet and soft cream cheese. Then once stuffed grab the bacon and wrap them around each of the stuffed jalapenos.

Bake the peppers for 10 to 15 minutes or until they has been cooked thoroughly.

Serve separately as an appetizer or snack or with a sandwich with lettuce and tomato.
