Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapeños

    Carefully slice each jalapeño in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes using a small spoon or knife. This will reduce the heat level of the peppers.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

Stuffing and Wrapping

  1. 3

    Stuff the Jalapeños

    Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each jalapeño half with the cream cheese mixture, ensuring they are generously filled.

  2. 4

    Wrap with Bacon

    Take one slice of bacon and wrap it around each stuffed jalapeño, securing it with a toothpick if necessary. Ensure the bacon covers as much of the pepper as possible.

Grilling

  1. 5

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F / 190°C to 200°C).

  2. 6

    Grill the Jalapeños

    Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeños on the grill grate. Close the lid and grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the jalapeños are tender.

  3. 7

    Remove and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the jalapeños from the grill and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.
