This has all of the fixins of a jalapeno popper in grilled cheese form!
On a hot grill, char the jalapenos, flipping to char all sides. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
Place charred jalapenos in a sealed bag to steam them. After about 10 minutes, remove them from the bag and gently peel off the skin (see note below). Slice off the tops of the peppers and discard. Slice down one side of the pepper and carefully remove the seed and ribs of the pepper.
Preheat a griddle to 375 degrees F.
Next, combine the cream cheese, minced green onion and black pepper in a small bowl. Spread desired amount of cream cheese mixture onto two slices of bread then layer on the jalapenos and cheese. Butter outer sides of each of the bread slices, top with another slice of bread and cook the sandwiches on the heated griddle until golden and crispy.
*Note: Always wear gloves while handling jalapenos or any spicy peppers.

This sandwich makes my husband very happy! Sometimes, I use canned green chilies instead of jalapenos. Very delicious and much faster.
Great! I roasted my jalapenos and then chopped and mixed with the cream cheese. These were fabulous! I also put a little garlic salt, oregano and thyme on my bread before grilling, just for that extra umph!

This sounds so good! I love jalapeno poppers so I’m sure I’ll love it in sandwich form!

Oh Lord have Mercy – this sounds like my kind of sandwich – cheese and hot peppers – can’t wait to try it. Thanks!
