I use frozen jalapenos and frozen hot chili's all the time. You can use them in anything! Use a sharp knife and slice. Or with a little liquid from whatever you are making, put in a blender and pulse until chopped or liquefied. Chili, spaghetti sauce(about 1/2 a pepper adds some zing) Mexican Rice, Spicy roast beef, etc. anything you want to add some heat to, you can use frozen peppers. ( We grow ours in patio boxes and then freeze our bounty. It adds a summer freshness to all your dishes!)

Make a vodka martini, instead of an olive, use a slice of the jalapeno. Caliente.

stuff them!
cream cheese
fresh cilantro chopped
splash of lemon juice
salt
pepper
comino
garlic powder
crumbled cooked bacon
shredded cheddar
minced onion
diced tomato (optional)
mix them all together and stuff those peppers!
I also sometimes dip the final stuffed pepper in buttermilk then a flour batter and deep fry them, so yummy!
I did not include amounts to ingredients as each person is different, use your own taste buds!
