jalapeno
Fiery green pod
A jalapeno is a small to medium-sized chili pepper, typically green and moderately hot.
It's among the most common peppers in Mexican and Tex-Mex cooking, often stuffed, pickled, or sliced raw as a topping: jalapeño poppers, nachos with jalapeños.
The accent mark is often dropped in English spelling.
