ready in:
  30-60 minutes

ingredients

36 large jalapeno chilies, roasted and peeled, with stem intact
1/2 pound cooked shrimp, peeled, deveined and minced
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons chili sauce
2 teaspoons minced capers
2 teaspoons green onions
2 teaspoons fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon horseradish
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
peanut oil
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup beer, room temp
2 eggs, room temp
3 tablespoons minced green onions
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

directions

Using a small, sharp knife, cut 1 1/2-inch slit on one side of each chili, beginning at the stem end. Scrape out seeds and rinse chilies, being careful not to tear stems. Drain on towels.

Mix next nine ingredients. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon about 1 teaspoon into each chili (do not over stuff; chili should close). Arrange chilies on baking sheet and refrigerate.

Heat three-quarters of an inch of peanut oil to 350 degrees F in a heavy large skillet. Blend in remaining ingredients in large bowl.

Chilies are fragile; lay in bowl a few at a time and spoon beer batter over each chili, coating completely. Add chilies to skillet in batches and fry until golden brown, turning once, about five minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve.
