Fiery Cajun Shrimp Stuffed Jalapeños

Ingredients:

12 large jalapeños, halved lengthwise and seeded

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 pound small shrimp, cooked and chopped

2 tablespoons chopped green onions

1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons melted butter

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix until smooth.

Fold in the chopped shrimp and green onions, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.

Stuff each jalapeño half generously with the cheese and shrimp mixture.

In a small bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs with melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the stuffed jalapeños for a crispy topping.

Arrange the jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the jalapeños are tender and the topping is golden brown.

Let cool slightly before serving, and enjoy the spicy kick!
