For the Rattlesnake Bites
Method
Instructions
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Coat the Jalapeños
In a shallow bowl, beat the egg. In another shallow bowl, place the bread crumbs. Dip each stuffed jalapeño in the egg, then coat in bread crumbs until fully covered.
Fry the Bites
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded jalapeños in batches, frying until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the Rattlesnake Bites hot with ranch dressing for dipping.
