Baked Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers
Girls Got to Eat with Tammi Weed
Episode #102 – All-Star Appetizers
Ease of Preparation: EASY
Serves: 4-6
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Line a sheet pan with foil and coat it with cooking spray.
Cut the jalapeños. Most people cut the jalapeño in half lengthwise, but I like to cut just the tops off lengthwise, so you'll place the cheese filling in the bottom piece and place the top back on to cover. This method will give you fewer poppers, but they will hold their shape better in cooking and makes the poppers easier to eat.
Warning! You might want to wear gloves when preparing poppers to prevent possible burn from capsaicin (the chemical inside the peppers that makes them spicy.
Spoon to scoop out the seeds and pith a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic salt, pepper, and steak seasoning if desired.
Fill each jalapeño bottom half with the cheese mixture using a spoon or a frosting piping bag works great too!
Wrap each popper and arrange on your prepared baking sheet.
Note: The amount of bacon is up to you. You can cut the slices in half or use one slice per popper.
Bake until bacon is crispy and browned. Don't worry about a little cheese oozing out.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately, Enjoy!
