You've heard of poppers, how about screamers?

Engineered from the same exacting standards as the Kentucky Fried WTF, consider this the mini-coop of the big SUVs.

These are small and peppy.  More gas to the gallon and guaranteed to get you going.

Can be served as an un-appetizer - finger food or just plain simple fun bar food.  It will definitely be noticed in a crowd at a party.

Step 1Keep it simple...

Keep it simple...
A simple preparation!

These are essentially fried stuffed jalapeno chili peppers with a bit of ecoutrements.

This is really another project to clean out the fridge. See what you have on hand and substitute anything you do not have.

You will need:
Jalapeno peppers - you can try other varieties and sizes.

For the stuffing, you will need
cream cheese
shredded cheese, any variety - the stringy kinds are good like mozzarella

seasonings - garlic, onion, salt, pepper, crushed pepper flakes, parsley, chili powder, etc. whatever you like.
Adjust the heat to your preference.

bacon - I'm going to try this turkey bacon as it might be "healthier", you can also use any other additional cured meats as flavoring, ham, proscuitto or pepperoni bits.

Stick pretzels - small thin ones, not the pretzel rods, you can even use potato stix.

Couple of strands of cooked spaghetti, or noodles

For the breading:
seasoned flour
egg or milk
breadcrumbs - you can also use cornmeal, cracker crumbs, panko breadcrumbs or just back into the flour tank

You can go with a batter type coating also.  Try beer batter or tempura.
 
And lastly, a kitchen equipped for deep-fat frying or try the oven-fry method.

CAUTION:  Frying with oil may be hazardous.  If you don't know what you are doing in the kitchen, work on perfecting poached eggs and then graduate to the deep fryer. Handle chili peppers with care as any trace contact from peppers to sensitive areas on your body might irritate and hurt like the Dickens...and that too.

I MUST make these even though my daughter will in no way try to eat one even if bribery is attempted. Worthy of inclusion in Nanny Ogg's cookbook, somewhere between the Quattro Rodenti Pizza and the Sticky Toffee Rat Onna Stick.

About halfway through.

I thought entries had to be published on or after the start date of the contest. Am I missing something?
Oct 3, 2011. 9:57 AMcloudifornia says:
Not according to the official rules.

4. Projects published prior to the Start Date are not eligible for entry. You may not register the same Instructables project in more than three (3) Instructables contests in total. Further information about entry can be found in Section B below.

You might want to double-check, because I copied that directly from them.

Wow at first glance I thought they were mice crispies (no pun intended, ha ha. ) No, really, I saw a movie once where a guy was stranded while he was doing research and a snow storm covered everything, so he survived by eating mice like the foxes were doing. Yuk.! It was prob. not true, but who knows. Remember the Donner Part. Yum! But anyway, nice 'ible I'm going to try this ASAP after going shopping for the ingreds. Thanks!

I could actually eat one of these, even though I know where they came from. I'll bet your kids think your totally awesome! Thats a good thing.

I have a hunch you do quite well without trying! I enjoy reading your comments and of course your instructables.

One word... BRILLIANT!!! ;)

These are fantastic! Are people terrified to eat over at your house? One minor suggestion for your next party, make about 3/4 regular poppers and 1/4 these and see who notices the first screamer!
Jun 24, 2011. 8:06 AMRollerScrapper says:
Ha ha too true, and you can rush right over and eat it!
