Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick spray
6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 green onions, minced
12 large jalapenos, halved lengthwise and seeded
12 slices center-cut bacon, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, Cheddar, cilantro, salt, pepper and green onions.
  • Fill each jalapeno half with a heaping teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture. Wrap the bacon tightly around the jalapenos, overlapping slightly.

  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the bacon is crisp, about 25 minutes.
