Pickled Jalapenos How To Make Picked Japalenos Without Canning Shweta In The Kitchen

I’m sharing this easy Pickled Jalapeños recipe today that you can make in about 15 mins. These are instant i.e. you can use them right away for your recipe or store them in your refrigerator for later or longer use. Bet you wont buy the store bought ones after making these. I tend to make a small batch but you could double or triple it too with out any change to the cooking time. Bonus of making these is, you dont need to do any canning method and these pickled jalapeños still go on for months. In fact the more they sit they better they taste. The tend to lose the heat and marinate to this slightly sweet and sour taste which I love. A simple toast with melted cheese and these pickled Jalapeños makes a simple cheese sandwich so much more interesting and delicious 😋

How to make pickled Jalapeños:

You can make these on stove top or in your Instant pot. Below are the steps for both methods.

Washing and Prepping the Jalapeños

Wash the jalapeños thoroughly and pat them dry using a kitchen towel or paper towel. Wear hand gloves (to avoid burning sensation) and slice off the head/top part of the jalapeños and slice them into thin rings (not too thin though). Keep aside. You could even rinse the jalapeños after slicing them to reduce the heat. But this is optional as the brine we will make using vinegar and sugar will reduce the heat significantly.

Step by Step Method Using Stove Top

In a saucepan/pot add the water and vinegar along with garlic, salt, Italian seasoning and sugar, bring it to a boil. Stir in the sliced jalapeños and boil for about 5-10 mins. You will see that Jalapeños change color and turn from bright green to pale greenish yellow color. That’s your clue to switch off the gas. Allow to cool completely and then transfer everything into a clean and dry jar and store in refrigerator. You can either remove the garlic clove and discard or add it to the jar.

Step by Step Method Using Instant Pot

In you Instant Pot, add all the ingredient - water, vinegar, garlic, salt, Italian seasoning, sugar and jalapeños. Give it a good mix. Close the lid and close the lid with vent to sealing. Cook on Manual/Pressure Cook High for 0 mins followed by a quick release once the cooking is complete. Allow to cool completely and then transfer everything into a clean and dry jar and store in refrigerator. You can either remove the garlic clove and discard or add it to the jar. That’s it, out spicy and tangy Pickled Jalapeños are ready. Add these to your Nachos, Enchilada, quesadilla, Tacos, pizza sandwiches, salads, salsa, and to anything you like. Enjoy!
