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.
