1
Prepare the Jalapeños
Wash the fresh jalapeños thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
2
Slice the Jalapeños
Cut the jalapeños in half lengthwise. If you prefer less heat, you can remove the seeds and membranes using a spoon.
3
Season the Jalapeños
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until you have a uniform seasoning blend.
4
Coat the Jalapeños
Add the prepared jalapeño halves to the bowl with the seasoning mixture. Toss them gently to ensure each jalapeño is well coated with the mixture.
5
Grill the Jalapeños
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the seasoned jalapeños cut side down on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
6
Add Lime Juice and Cilantro
Once grilled, remove the jalapeños from the grill and drizzle with lime juice. Sprinkle the chopped cilantro on top for added flavor.
7
Serve
Serve the grilled jalapeños warm as a spicy side dish or appetizer. Enjoy!
