3 ounces of sharp cheddar, grated fine |
4 ounces of refrigerated crab, picked over and drained well |
2 skinny green onions, minced fine |
2 big squeezes of lemon juice |
1/8 tsp of sea salt (i use a big pinch here) |
24 large jalapenos, cut in half and seeded |
Directions:
1. In a pot of boiling salted water, blanch the halved seeded jalapenos for about 30 seconds. Plunge in ice water to stop the cooking.
2. Pat dry.
3. Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, crab, onions, salt and lemon juice.
4. Fill the jalapeno halves and bake in preheated 375 degree oven for
