Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
- If you have them, slip on some latex gloves for the pepper prep. Cut the jalapenos in half lengthwise. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membranes (the source of the heat; leave a little if you like things HOT). Smear cream cheese into each jalapeno half and then wrap with a bacon piece (1/2 slice). Secure by sticking a toothpick through the middle. Place on the rack in the baking sheet.
- Bake until the bacon is sizzling and done, 1 hour 15 minutes. Serve immediately, or they're also great at room temperature.
JALAPENO POPPERS
The flavor of the peppers come through, but the cheese and bacon put some of the fire out. I believe the "tenderfoot" would even like these. I have even frozen these with good success.

JALAPEñO POPPERS
There are many delicious versions of jalapeño poppers: Some are breaded and deep-fried, others use two kinds of cheese, and another, called armadillo eggs, calls for enrobing the cheese-stuffed peppers with ground meat and bacon. These easy-baked poppers are filled with tangy cream cheese - brightened with scallions, cilantro, garlic and lime zest - then wrapped with bacon for looks, salt and crunch. For a vegetarian variation, sprinkle the stuffed jalapeños with finely crumbled tortilla chips before baking to complement the crisp-tender chiles and the molten-cheese filling.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, then top with a wire rack.
- Halve jalapeños lengthwise. (Do your best to halve them through their stems for added visual appeal.) Using the tip of a small spoon, scoop out and discard the seeds. Set the halved jalapeños aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, cilantro, scallions, garlic and lime zest, if using; season generously with salt and pepper.
- Season the inside of each halved jalapeño with salt and pepper, then fill each with about 2 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture. (Fill until there's a slight dome on top.) Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with 1 piece of bacon, setting one tip of bacon on top of the cream cheese filling, then wrapping the bacon under and over the popper at an angle, so the bacon covers the filling on top in two layers. (The bacon will shrink as it cooks, so you want to make sure the top of the popper is well covered.) Arrange poppers evenly on the wire rack, nestling each popper between two parallel wires to keep it upright so the cream cheese doesn't spill during baking.
- Transfer to the oven, and bake until bacon is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Broil on the rack closest to the broiler until crisp, about 2 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm.

Tips for Making the Best Jalapeno Poppers:
- Choose the right jalapenos: Look for firm, deep green jalapenos that are about 2-3 inches long. Avoid any jalapenos that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Wear gloves when handling jalapenos: The oils in jalapenos can irritate your skin, so it's best to wear gloves when handling them. If you do get any jalapeno oil on your skin, wash it off immediately with soap and water.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapenos: This will help to reduce the heat of the peppers. You can use a spoon or a knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
- Stuff the jalapenos with your favorite filling: There are many different fillings that you can use for jalapeno poppers, such as cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, sausage, and shrimp. Get creative and experiment with different fillings to find your favorite.
- Bread the jalapeno poppers: This will help to keep the filling inside the peppers and give them a crispy coating. You can use breadcrumbs, panko breadcrumbs, or crushed crackers to bread the jalapeno poppers.
- Fry or bake the jalapeno poppers: You can either fry or bake the jalapeno poppers. If you fry them, be sure to use a high-quality oil, such as canola oil or vegetable oil. If you bake them, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve the jalapeno poppers with your favorite dipping sauce: There are many different dipping sauces that you can serve with jalapeno poppers, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or sour cream. Choose a dipping sauce that you enjoy and that complements the flavors of the jalapeno poppers.
Conclusion:
Jalapeno poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a little bit of planning and preparation, you can make jalapeno poppers that are sure to impress your friends and family.
