Jalapeño Preparation
Method
Jalapeño Preparation
Prepare the Jalapeños
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes for less heat, if desired.
Make the Filling
In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
Stuff the Jalapeños
Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half, filling them generously.
Wrap with Bacon
Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with a half slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick, if needed.
Bake
Place the jalapeños on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is bubbly.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious jalapeños!
