Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a bowl, toss the pepper halves with olive oil and salt until evenly coated. (2 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, thoroughly combine the softened goat cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced jalapeño, minced garlic, dried chives, and black pepper. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Spoon the cheese mixture generously into each pepper half. Arrange the stuffed peppers on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

05

Step
15 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the peppers have softened and the cheese is beautifully browned, approximately 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

For a smoother cheese mixture, ensure the goat cheese is fully softened at room temperature before mixing.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño to control the heat level; remove the seeds and membranes for a milder flavor.
To prevent the peppers from tipping over during baking, use a muffin tin to hold them upright.
Garnish with fresh chives or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for an extra touch of flavor and visual appeal.

    I found that using a piping bag to fill the peppers was much easier and less messy.

    I used a food processor to blend the cheese mixture and it turned out super smooth.
