BACON WRAPPED CHEESY STUFFED JALAPEñOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (best for clean-up) or a silicone baking mat. Place a baking rack on top of the baking sheet. Set aside.
• Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds and center membrane. Set aside.
• Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and paprika together until combined. You could also do this by hand using a rubber spatula. Salt to taste - I add just a pinch. Spoon filling equally among all 24 jalapeño halves.
• Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with a half slice of bacon and stick a toothpick through the center to assure the bacon stays in place. Place each on the baking rack and bake for 25-28 minutes or until the bacon is crisp to your liking. I like to turn the oven to broil for the last minute or two to get things extra crispy. Serve immediately. Cover leftovers and keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Devein jalapenos by scraping insides with a potatoe piller.
• Wash well.
• Stuff each jalapeno with approx 1 oz of cream cheese. (we buy the packets at our local wholesale supplier). They come with several in a package but each PACKET is one ounce and you can easily squeese it into the jalapenos this way). MUCH easier than using a spoon.
• Slice bacon in 1/2.
• Top the opening of each jalapeno with 1/2 slice of bacon and secure with a tooth pick.
• Cook on grill or open flame until done. We prefer the jalapeno to be black in some parts.

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!

STUFFED JALAPENOS TOPPED WITH BACON

Steps:

• TO CLEAN THE PEPPERS-.
• Use jalapenos that are large and straight. Put on your rubber gloves and cut the tops off. To clean the inside I have found that a grapefruit knife works the best.Core out the seeds and scrape the inside. Try to get all the seeds out, especially at the tip. If there are any left inside, you will know it. Place them in the chili grill.
• Fry up the sausage, drain good, and while it's still hot, mix in the cream cheese, garlic, onions, cilantro and shredded cheese. Mix well.
• Poke a tiny hole in the bottom of the chili to let the grease out.
• Put in a pastry bag and squeeze it into the jalapenos.
• Cut bacon strips in thirds and lay on top of the chili. Secure with a toothpick. The toothpick holds the bacon and also stops the jalapeno from falling through when its cooked.
• TO COOK IN THE OVEN --
• Bake in oven (put a flat pan underneath to catch the drips)
• ON THE GRILL --
• cook with indirect heat (need a temp gauge)
• For spicier ones....cook 325° for 30 minutes.
• For not too spicy peppers...cook 325° for 45 minutes. The longer you cook them, the milder they get. Don't cook at a higher temp or the stuffing will cook out of them. When the bacon is done, the peppers are done.

BACON-WRAPPED STUFFED JALAPENOS

Grill, covered, over direct heat for 1-2 minutes or until bacon is crisp.

ROASTED JALAPENO & CHEESE STUFFED BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Flatten chicken breasts to approx 1/4" thickness. Season both sides of chicken with garlic salt and pepper.
• Divide and place sliced smoked jalapenos on each breast with cheese. Fold over the chicken and secure with a tooth pick or two. Then wrap each chicken breast with bacon.
• Brown rolls over medium heat until bacon just begins to crisp. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
• Grilling Method: Skip step #3. Grill on all sides until chicken and bacon are cooked through, being careful because the cheese will melt and seep out. Watch for flare ups from bacon fat.
