Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Cut the top off of each Jalapeno pepper, and then slice them in half. Use a spoon to scoop out the insides, including the seeds.
- Add 1 ounce of canned chicken to a small mixing bowl.
- Mix in 2 ounces of cream cheese and 1 ounce of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Sprinkle in pepper to taste if desired.
- Mix all the ingredients together well.
- Fill each of the jalapeno pepper halves with the cream cheese and chicken mixture until you have used it all.
- Cut the slices of thick cut bacon in half lengthwise and then in half again horizontally. This will give you 4 pieces of bacon per strip.
- Wrap a piece of bacon around each of the stuffed jalapeno peppers.
- Place the peppers on a baking tray lined with aluminum foil, or on a baking rack that sits within a sheet pan.
- Bake the peppers for 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the peppers are starting to become tender.
