Directions

  1. Mix turkey (or ham), cheese, and onion. Add salt, pepper, and garlic, to taste, and set mixture aside.
  2. Mix eggs and milk together. Beat well and set aside.
  3. Mix cornmeal, flour, fajita seasoning, and 1 teaspoon of salt together. Set aside.
  4. Slit the chiles down the side just enough to remove the seeds and stuff with meat mixture. Roll chile in plain flour. Next, dip chile in egg and milk mixture then roll the chile in cornmeal and flour mixture. Repeat dipping chile in milk and egg mixture, then roll again in cornmeal and flour mixture. Fry chiles in oil over medium heat in pan on stovetop until golden brown.
