Twisted Texas Chicken Diablos
- 2 lb chicken tenders
- 2/3 cup orange juice
- 1 1/2 tbsp dry steak seasoning
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2/3 cup chopped Texas pecans
- 12 whole fresh jalapenoes
- 2 lb thin-sliced bacon
- 2 cup barbecue sauce
- Preheat oven or grill to 350F.
- Place chicken tenders in bowl, add orange juice and 1 tablespoon steak seasoning, stir and cover and set in fridge to marinate 1 or more hours but not overnight.
- In seperate bowl, mix cream cheese, pecans and 1/2 tablespoon steak seasoning, blend well by hand and set aside.
- When ready to assemble, wash and slice jalapenos in half lengthways, remove the seeds, then rinse again.
- Fill jalapeno with cream cheese mixture, place slightly flatened chicken tender on top of filling, wrap with 1 slice of bacon, and secure with toothpicks so that bacon stays wrapped around jalapeno.
- When finished, brush all finished jalapenos generously with BBQ sauce.
- Bake or grill for 15 minutes at 350, baste with more sauce and continue for another 15 minutes or until chicken is done.
- When finished cooking, baste one last time or use remaining sauce to serve.
