Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapeños

    Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine lobster meat, diced avocado, cream cheese, salt, black pepper, and sriracha sauce. Mix until well blended.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Jalapeños

    Fill each jalapeño half with the lobster filling mixture, pressing it in gently.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Tempura Batter

    In a separate bowl, whisk the tempura batter mix with ice water until smooth.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  6. 6

    Fry the Jalapeño Boats

    Dip each stuffed jalapeño into the tempura batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes each side.

  7. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the jalapeño boats from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with additional sriracha sauce on the side.
