Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Jalapenos Food

BACON WRAPPED STUFFED JALAPENO PEPPERS

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, garlic, sundried tomatoes, cilantro and salt until well blended. You can now set the mixture aside or even freeze for up to a couple of months in a freezer bag.
• You'll want to wear some kitchen gloves for this step! Slice the jalapeños lengthwise, being careful not to slice them in half. Then slice at the top along the width of the pepper just about a quarter inch below the base of the stem until you cut through the core, again being careful not to cut completely through the pepper (This step will probably take some practice). Now you need to decide whether you want to keep the seed webbing for those that like it really hot, or remove them for a lot less heat. I like to do about half and half so that you can please everyone. Anyway, if removing the seeds, gently remove the core using a paring knife by spreading the pepper carefully, you may need to shake some of the remaining seeds out.
• Separate the strips of bacon and cook in the microwave for about 5 minutes on high, just enough to give it a head start. Then pat dry with paper towels. Just to soak up some of the grease. Set it aside to cool.
• Fill either a pastry bag or just a freezer bag (cutting one corner out), and pipe some of the filling into each pepper until full but still able to almost close the pepper.
• Wrap each pepper with a strip of bacon then use two or three toothpicks to secure the pepper closed.
• Place the jalapeños on a medium heat grill and cook until the bacon is crisp. you'll need to turn frequently to heat them evenly. you may even want to use foil to prevent the mess. I find that by cooking the bacon a little first and not over filling that you'll get minimal mess however.
• Let them sit for about 5 to 10 minutes and serve them up! Don't forget which ones have the seeds!

BACON WRAPPED STUFFED HABANEROS / JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Pre-Heat oven to 325.
• Start by washing the jalapenos, cutting the stem off, and then cutting them in half lengthwise.
• Next, devein and remove the seeds. ( I leave in for extra heat)
• Now you are ready to stuff the peppers with cream cheese. Using a knife cut about a quarter of an inch slice of cream cheese, short side, and then smooth it into the pepper.
• After this step is completed, you are ready to wrap them in bacon. I usually cut about half of the pack of bacon in half and use the full strips for the larger peppers. Now just start wrapping. If wrapped from one end to the other moderately tight, no toothpicks are needed to hold the bacon on.
• This method should use just about all of the cream cheese and all of the bacon.
• Now put them in the oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes. Check them periodically as oven temps vary. They are ready when the bacon is firm, not crisp and the cheese is slightly brown. Enjoy!

• Wrap the bacon tightly around the jalapenos, slightly overlapping. Arrange 1 inch apart on the rack, cheese-side up. Bake until the bacon is crisp, about 25 minutes.
• You can make these poppers up to 2 hours ahead and keep at room temperature. Reheat at 350 degrees F until hot, about 20 minutes.

CREAM CHEESE STUFFED JALAPENOS WRAPPED IN BACON

Steps:

• Wash and remove the seeds of the jalapenos by making a "T" cut in the jalapenos and scooping out the seeds. (A "T" cut is where you cut the pepper horizontal about half way and then in the middle of the slit, you cut a vertical slit forming a "T" cut in the pepper.).
• In a bowl, combine cream cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and garlic powder. Using a teaspoon "stuff" the jalapeno with the cream cheese mixture.
• Wrap jalapeno in bacon and secure with a toothpick. (If you are cooking on the grill remember to soak toothpick in water for 15 minutes before securing pepper with it, to ensure it doesn't catch fire on the grill).
• Cook on the grill or bake at 450° F for 15 minutes or until bacon is cooked through.
• Enjoy!

• 3. If you have long slices of bacon, cut them in half. Then wrap bacon all the way around the jalapeno.
• 4. Place wrapped jalapeno on a pan covered with tin foil and sprayed with non stick cooking stray. (If you have a wire rack, place it on top of the pan to keep the jalapenos out of the grease)
• 5. Bake @ 300-350 until bacon is fully done.
