• 1 (32 ounce) jarhot pickled cherry peppers, drained, juice reserved (about 25 small to medium peppers)

• extra virgin olive oil

1. Slice off the tops of the peppers.
2. With a small spoon, scoop out the seeds.

6. Fill the cherry peppers with the crumb mixture, packing it lightly.
7. Refrigerate until serving time.
