Cheesy jalapeño stuffed onion rings 

Print pin

Ingredients

Serves 10 Rings
  • 3 Large white onions some of the smaller rings won’t work so save for other recipes or stock
  • 4 Slices of mozzarella
  • 4 Slices of jalapeño pepper jack 
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 3 Eggs
  • 2 cups Panko breadcrumbs
  • Oil for frying 
  • Marinara for dipping

Instructions 

  • Peel and slice onions (about 1 cm wide). Separate into rings, pairing up rings that have one bigger one and one slightly smaller one. Place the smaller one in the center of the big one.
  • Slice cheese into strips and place in between the rings until the cheese completes the whole circle. Repeat with remaining rings and freeze for 1 hour. 
  • Dredge each ring in flour, then eggs, then breadcrumbs, making sure they get a full coating of each. 
  • Add oil to a deep pan and heat until the temp is 350. A few at a time, add onion rings to the oil. Cook about 2-3 min per side or until the shells get browned. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate or baking rack. Serve with marinara and that’s it! Enjoy! 

Notes

I tested this with panko and regular breadcrumbs and both work great
