Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 wooden toothpicks
4 slices bacon, cut in thirds
4 oz (half of 8-oz package) cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or finely chopped green onions
6 jalapeño chiles (2 to 3 inch), halved lengthwise, seeded

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Soak toothpicks in small bowl of warm water to prevent burning. Line large rimmed cookie sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Place bacon on foil; bake about 12 minutes or until soft and pliable. Transfer to paper-towel lined plate. Discard foil and bacon drippings, or reserve for another use. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  • In small bowl, mix cream cheese and chives. Spoon or pipe mixture evenly into chile halves.
  • Wrap 1 piece of bacon over top and sides of each stuffed chile half; secure with soaked toothpick. Place on cookie sheet.
  • Bake 11 to 14 minutes or until bacon is cooked through and chiles are tender. Serve warm.
