Grilled Jalapenos

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapenos

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, wash the jalapeno peppers and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and membranes for less heat, if desired.

  2. 2

    Season the Peppers

    In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Brush the mixture generously over the cut sides of the jalapenos.

  3. 3

    Grill the Jalapenos

    Place the seasoned jalapenos cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, until they are charred and tender.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the jalapenos from the grill and serve them hot with lime wedges for squeezing over the top.
