Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up. Cut off one-third of each pepper lengthwise (see photos). Use a small spoon (a serrated grapefruit spoon works great) to scoop out the seeds and membranes from each pepper, and discard those pieces.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and green onion, garlic powder, onion powder and salt. Stir to combine.
Step 3
Stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture (you might have a small amount left over). Top each of the peppers with a small mound of cheese lengthwise.
Step 4
Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and starting to turn golden.
Step 5
Meanwhile, place a big handful of chips in a food processor and process until the chips are broken into tiny pieces (or, you can crush them under a rolling pin). Stir the feta, if using, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of cilantro and green onion into the chips.
Step 6
Transfer the jalapeño poppers to a large serving dish and top each pepper with the crushed chip mixture. Serve!
