Step 1

Using your oven roast the jalapenos for 10 minutes at 400 degrees. Or 350 degrees for 10 minutes using the air fryer.

8 jalapenos

Step 2

Once the peppers are roasted, cut a slit down the center of the jalapeno, remove the seeds and place back on the baking sheet. Continue with all the peppers.

Step 3

Stuff the peppers with your favorite melting cheese, I used queso chihuahua, but mozzarella/pepper jack/colby jack also work. Place back into your oven or air fryer to melt the cheese.
