Baked Cream Cheese Jalapeno Poppers image

After a number of unsatisfactory attempts at making deep-fried poppers, I modified a recipe by Emeril that is much easier than frying and everyone in our family agrees that these are at least as good as -- if not better than -- any fried poppers they have had! We love hot peppers and always make a lot of these from the ones we grow in our garden every year.

CREAM CHEESE STUFFED JALAPENOS WRAPPED IN BACON



Cream Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos Wrapped in Bacon image

Delicious stuffed jalapeno recipe I got from my sister. Great for parties, especially barbecues. You can cook either in the oven or on the grill, but I prefer the grill. You can also substitute Anaheim peppers for a little less heat.

Provided by abbibaby

Categories     Cheese

Time 30m

Yield 30 peppers, 10-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

30 jalapeno peppers (or Anaheim peppers)
2 (16 ounce) packages bacon
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 cups sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (out of a jar is fine, they don't have to be fresh)
1 tablespoon garlic powder

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!

Tips:

  • Choose the right jalapeños: Look for firm, deep green jalapeños that are about 2-3 inches long. Avoid any jalapeños that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Wear gloves when handling jalapeños: The capsaicin in jalapeños can irritate your skin, so it's important to wear gloves when handling them. If you do get capsaicin on your skin, wash it off immediately with soap and water.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeños: This will help to reduce the heat of the jalapeños. You can use a spoon or a paring knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
  • Stuff the jalapeños with your favorite fillings: You can use a variety of fillings for your cream cheese-stuffed jalapeños, such as cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, or sausage. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Bake or fry the jalapeños: You can either bake or fry your cream cheese-stuffed jalapeños. If you're baking them, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the jalapeños for 15-20 minutes, or until they're golden brown. If you're frying them, heat some oil in a large skillet over medium heat and fry the jalapeños until they're golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the jalapeños with your favorite dipping sauce: You can serve your cream cheese-stuffed jalapeños with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or sour cream. You can also sprinkle them with chopped cilantro or parsley for garnish.
