Delicious Stuffed Banana Peppers image

Spicy meets sweet and creamy in these stuffed banana peppers. Makes a great snack or an appetizer for a party. Great for large groups as you can easily control the amount of spiciness. This is one of my favorites!

Time 50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

toothpicks
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
½ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
10 banana peppers
10 slices peppered bacon, or to taste

Steps:

  • Soak toothpicks in water for 15 minutes.
  • Combine cream cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and cilantro in a large bowl. Mix well.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Cut a slit lengthwise through each pepper without slicing it in half. Cut another slit about 1/4 inch from the stem across the previous slit, forming a 'T'. Remove seeds, as desired, using a paring knife.
  • Fill each pepper with the cream cheese stuffing mixture using a small spoon. Wrap each pepper with a slice of raw bacon. Slide 1 toothpick through the center of each pepper to hold onto the bacon and keep pepper closed.
  • Grill stuffed peppers for 15 minutes. Turn and cook until bacon is crisp, about 10 minutes more.
