Ingredients

Instructions

Step 1
Slice each jalapeño pepper in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the ribs and seeds and discard.

Step 2
Make the filling by combining softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheese, diced pickled jalapeños, pickled jalapeño juice, bacon bits, green onions, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl. Mix well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3
Generously fill each sliced pepper with the filling by using a spoon or piping bag.

Step 4
Make the topping by mixing 1 cup of crushed RUFFLES® FLAMIN’ HOT® BBQ potato chips with 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs. Sprinkle approximately 1 tbsp on top of each jalapeño popper.

Step 5
Place into a 375°F air-fryer for 5 minutes or until the pepper has softened and the filling is warm and gooey.

Step 6
Once cooked, plate onto desired serving dish and garnish with a drizzle of BBQ sauce, plus more for dipping. Also try pairing with ranch and an extra handful of RUFFLES® FLAMIN’ HOT® BBQ chips!
