Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Habaneros / Jalapenos
- 10 -12 jalapenos or 10 -12 habaneros
- 1 (16 ounce) package bacon
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
- Pre-Heat oven to 325.
- Start by washing the jalapenos, cutting the stem off, and then cutting them in half lengthwise.
- Next, devein and remove the seeds.
- ( I leave in for extra heat)
- Now you are ready to stuff the peppers with cream cheese.
- Using a knife cut about a quarter of an inch slice of cream cheese, short side, and then smooth it into the pepper.
- After this step is completed, you are ready to wrap them in bacon.
- I usually cut about half of the pack of bacon in half and use the full strips for the larger peppers.
- Now just start wrapping.
- If wrapped from one end to the other moderately tight, no toothpicks are needed to hold the bacon on.
- This method should use just about all of the cream cheese and all of the bacon.
- Now put them in the oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Check them periodically as oven temps vary.
- They are ready when the bacon is firm, not crisp and the cheese is slightly brown.
- Enjoy!
