INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Wear gloves and slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, scoop out the membranes and seeds.
Combine the cream cheese, garlic powder, shredded cheddar cheese, and chives in a medium bowl. In another small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and melted butter.
Fill the jalapenos with the cream cheese mixture and top with the breadcrumb mixture. Place poppers on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
While the poppers are baking, prepare the sauce by mixing the Tabañero XXX Hot Sauce and ranch dressing in a small bowl.
When done baking, allow the poppers to cool for ten minutes before serving with the Tabañero ranch sauce.
